I have seen several versions of this song in the archives, but I couldn't
really follow them. Here is a simple version that fits the recording:

   Annie's twelve years old in two more she'll be a whore  
   Nobody ever told her it's the   wrong way  
   Don't be afraid with the        quickness you get laid for your  
   Family get paid it's the        wrong way

E--------------------------------------------
   Still ruins her makeup I never wanted...


Notes:
- You can see that the Verse repeats. The chord patterns are:
  A G, F# E, B A, E D, and this is played twice.

- I separated the Outro because it doesn’t follow the pattern.
  You’d expect to play A G at that point.

- I don’t usually play all the strings I’ve indicated here. I
  find just playing the last two strings sounds good enough.
