Gene Lyr Req: Penny Annie (Larry Gatlin) (11) Chords Add: PENNY ANNIE (Larry Gatlin) 23 Jul 08


Note 1. They've tuned the 6th String (big E) from E down to D.

Note 2. They play it in D fingering and put a capo in the first fret, so they're in the key of Eb.

Note 3. Bm/A - is a B minor chord with an A bass note.

Note 4. My music buddy Zoomer chorded the song. I arranged the verses the way I like to see them and included some of the comments above.
