Song: When You And I Were Young Tab

Written by George W. Johnson and James Austin Butterfield in 1866.

(D) I wondered to (D7) day to the (G) hill Maggie
To (D) watch the scene be (A7) low
The (D) creek and the (D7) old rusty (G) mill Maggie
Where we (D) sat in the (A7) long long (D) ago 
(D7) The (G) green grove is gone from the (D) hill Maggie
Where the (A7) birds sang (E7) loud from the (A7) trees
When I (D) first said I (D7) loved only (G) you Maggie
And (D) you said you (A7) loved only (D) me

But (G) now we are aged and (D) old Maggie
The (A7) trails of (E7) life nearly (A7) done
Lets (D) sing of the (D7) days that are gone (G) Maggie
When (D) you and (A7) I were (D) young

Our dreams they have never come true Maggie
Our hopes they never were to be
When I first said I loved only you Maggie
And you said you loved only me
The green grove is gone from the hill Maggie
Where once the wild flowers sprang
The old rusty mill is now still Maggie
Since you and I were young

But now we are aged and old Maggie
The trails of life nearly run
Lets sing of the days that are gone Maggie
Since you and I were young
