Johnny Cash - The Ballad of Annie Palmer: chords

       A#     D#    A#           D#             A#
On the island of Jamaica quit a long long time ago
    A#   D#       A#              C7              F
At Rose Hall plantation where the ocean breezes blow
         A#        D#     A#          D#               A#
Lived a girl named Annie Palmer, the mistress of the place
          A#        F        A#      D#     A#     F        A#
And the slaves all lived in fear to see a frown on Annie's face

Chorus:
D#                   A#              D#              A#
Where’s your husband Annie, where's number two and three
           D#                  A#               C7        F
Are they sleeping beneath the palms beside the Caribbean sea
    D#               A#           D#               A#
At night I hear you riding and I hear your lovers call
        A#        F         A#       D#         A#            F    A#
And I still can feel your presence around the great house at Rose Hall

Well if you should ever go to see the great house at Rose Hall
There's expensive chairs and china and great paintings on the wall
They'll show you any sitting room and the whipping post outside
But they won't let you see the room where Annie's husbands died
