Artificial Flowers

 A        F#m    C#m5-/7        
Alone in the world was poor little 
F#m
Anne
  D9        Bm5-/7  E7/13   E7   
As sweet a  young  child   as 
A   Edim E7
you'd find
  A       F#m      C#m5-/7       
Her parents had gone to their final 
F#m
reward
D9   Bm5-/7     E7  E7/13  E7 
Leavin' their   baby   behind
A Edim E7

  A        F#m          C#m5-/7  
This poor little child was only 
     F#m
nine years of age
  D9     Bm5-/7  E7/13 E7   A 
When mother and  dad   went 
Edim E7
away
A          F#m       C#m5-/7    
Still bravely worked at the one 
    F#m
thing she knew
  D9  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13  E7  Fdim A
To earn her few pennies  a   day
Refrain one:
A7   D9   Bm5-/7     Dm6
She made artificial flowers, 
     A   D9      A
artificial flowers
D9 Fdim  Bm5-/7  E7      A D9 
Flowers for ladies of fashion 
 Fdim A
to wear
A7   D9   Bm5-/7
She made artificial    flowers

D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 A
Fashioned from   Annie's  despair
   A      F#m         C#m5-/7   
With paper and shears, with some 
F#m
wire and wax
  D9   Bm5-/7 E7/13  E7      A 
She made up  each  tulip and 
Edim E7
mum
   A        F#m       
As snowflakes drifted into her 
C#m5-/7     F#m
tenement room
D9 Fdim Bm5-/7     E7   A D9 Fdim A
Her baby little fingers grew numb
Refrain two
   A7  D9     Bm5-/7     Dm6    
From makin' artificial flowers, 
A   D9        A
artificial flowers
D9  Fdim   Bm5-/7    E7   
Flowers for ladies    of high 
  A   D9   Fdim  A
fashion to wear
A7   D9   Bm5-/7     Dm6
She made artificial flowers, 
     A   D9      A
artificial flowers
D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 A
Fashioned from   Annie's  despair
  A        F#m        C#m5-/7     
They found little Annie all 
F#m
covered in ice
     D9     Dm6    Bm5-/7   
Still clutchin' her poor 
E7/13   E7   A Edim E7
frozen    shears
 A        F#m         C#m5-/7
Amidst all the blossoms she had 
      F#m
fashioned by hand
 D9 Bm5-/7  E7/13   E7   Fdim  
And watered with all  her young
A   Edim E7
 tears
    A     F#m          C#m5-/7   
There must be a heaven where 
    F#m
little Annie can play
  D9   Dm6    Bm5-/7 E7/13   E7  
In heavenly    gardens    and 
A Edim E7
bowers
  A        F#m          C#m5-/7  
And instead of a halo she'll wear
     F#m
 'round her head
  D9 Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 Fdim
A garland of genuine  flowers
 A D9 A

Refrain three
A7   D9    Bm5-/7     Dm6
No more artificial flowers
   Fdim     A     D9     A
Throw away those artificial flowers
D9  Fdim    Bm5-/7    E7  Fdim 
Flowers    for ladies    of 
 A   D9   Fdim A
society  to  wear
    A7    D9     Bm5-/7     
Throw away those artificial    
Dm6     A     C#m5-/7   F#7
flowers, those dumb-dumb flower
 D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7 E7  E7/13 Fdim
Fashioned from Annie's,
D9 Dm6  Bm5-/7   E7 E7/13   E7 A
Fashioned from   Annie's  despair
Bm5-/7      Cdim    A6
Give her the real thing
