UnmarshalException while using JAXB

I am trying to run this code:

JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(ObjectFactory.class);
        Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();
        Tags tags = (Tags) unmarshaller.unmarshal(new File("Tags.xml"));

However, I get this error:

javax.xml.bind.UnmarshalException: unexpected element (uri:"", local:"tags"). Expected elements are (none)

How can I prevent this exception from occuring? This is my root element:

@XmlRootElement(name = "tags")

JAXB doesn't know which classes should process.

    JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(Tags.class);
    Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();
    Tags tags = (Tags) unmarshaller.unmarshal(new File("Tags.xml"));
