C                  G 
Anna my love, it's time now I'm sure 
F                        C 
They're here, the knock, this time it's our door 
Dm               C 
Anna my love, be brave at this hour  
    F              C        G 
And don't let them see Anna cry 
 
  
    C                            G 
The days that we've had, they've passed into years 
    F                           C 
The shadows we've had have been shadows of tears 
Dm                          C 
Don't let them know that we too have our fears 
    F              C        G 
No, don't let them see Anna cry 
 
  
  
F             C 
Anna my love, now I can stand 
G                        C 
Now I can face them with love in my hand 
F                       C 
Now I can speak for the ones of my land 
          Bb                 G 
They have taken, shaken from sleep 
 
  
C                     G 
Anna my love, we must dress and go down 
   F                      C 
My best Sunday suit, your best evening gown 
        Dm                  C 
They'll march and parade us right throughout the town 
F              C        G 
Don't let them see Anna cry 
 
  
F             C 
Anna my love, now I can stand 
G                        C 
Now I can face them with love in my hand 
F                       C 
Now I can speak for the ones of my land 
          Bb                 G 
They have taken, shaken from sleep
