TARGET Members will have any Charts, TAB, and Guitar Pro Files Annie's Song is one of John Denver's most popular and heavily requested songs. The story goes that he wrote it in about 10 minutes while on a ski lift, at a time when his marriage was getting a bit rocky. The song apparently managed to save it, for a little while. The melody and harmony are based on a theme by Tchaikovsky, which features a descending bass line similar to Bach's Air On A G String and A Whiter Shade Of Pale. This lesson stresses hitting the bass notes accurately while quickly moving through some barre chords. It includes multiple ways of playing the song, including a Campfire Version which I would call Level 4, an Arpeggio Version which would be Level 5, and a more random fingerstyle version, in the manner that John Denver played it, probably level 6.
