Bb C F
No one ever noticed Annie weeping.
Bb C Dm C Bb
People all around, but she was all alone.
Gm C Am Dm
Mama's got her meetings and Daddy's got his job,
Bb C Dm C Bb F
but no one's got the time so Annie's on her own.
Bb C F
No one ever knew her desperation.
Bb C Dm C Bb
People couldn't hear her cry out silently.
Gm C Am Dm
Locked inside the bathroom she grabs a jar of pills.
Bb C Dm C Bb
The medicine that cures becomes the poison that kills.
1st CHORUS
==========
Bb C Dm C Bb F
And it's too late for Annie. She's gone away for good.
Bb C Bb C
There's so much we could tell her and now we wish we could.
Bb C Dm C F
But it's too late, it's too late for Annie.
Bb C F
Sadness fills the hearts of Annie's family.
Bb C Dm C Bb
Daddy tries to comfort Mama uselessly.
Gm C Am Dm
They hoped she knew they loved her, but they really didn't know.
Bb C Dm C Bb
They just want to know why did their baby go.
2nd CHORUS
==========
Bb C Dm C Bb F
And it's too late for Annie. She's gone away for good.
Bb C Bb C
There's so much that we could tell her, and now we wish we could.
Dm C Dm C
We would tell her Jesus loves her, tell her Jesus cares.
Dm C Dm C Bb
Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.
Bb C Dm C F
But it's too late, it's too late for Annie.
Bb C F
If only we'd have known her situation,
Bb C Dm C Bb
We'd have tried to stop this useless tragedy.
Gm C Am Dm
Annie's lost forever, never to be found.
Bb C Dm C Bb
But there are lots of others like her all around.
3rd CHORUS
==========
Bb C Dm C Bb F
And it's not too late for Annie. She could be next to you.
Bb C Bb C
Don't miss the chance to tell her before her life is through.
Dm C Dm C
We gotta Tell her Jesus loves her, Tell her Jesus cares.
Dm C Dm C Bb C
Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.
Dm C Dm C
Tell her Jesus loves her, Tell her Jesus cares.
Dm C Dm C Bb C
Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.
Dm C Dm C
You've got to tell her Jesus loves her, Tell her Jesus cares.
Dm C Dm C Bb
Tell her He can free her and her burdens bear.
Dm
It's not, too late
