E E/D# C#m C#m/B A A/G# F#m
I wander'd today to the hill Maggie
E B Bsus B Bsus B
To watch the scene below
E E/D# C#m C#m/B A A/G# F#m
The creek and the rusty old mill Maggie
E B E Esus E Esus E
Where we wandered in the long, long ago.
A A/G# F#m E
The green grass is gone from the hill Maggie,
F# B Bsus B Bsus B
Where once the wild daisies sprung
E E/D# C#m C#m/B A A/G# F#m,
The rusty old mill now is still Maggie
E B E
Since you and I were young
E E/D# C#m C#m/B A A/G# F#m
They say they say they say I'm feeble with age Maggie
E B Bsus B Bsus B
And my step not as sprititly as them
E E/D# C#m C#m/B A A/G# F#m
My face is a well a well written page Maggie
E B E A A/G#
And time alone was the pen
F#m E
They say we are aged and gray, Maggie,
F# B Bsus B Bsus B
Aa spray the wild breakers flung
E E/D# C#m C#m/B A A/G# F#m
To me you're as fair as you were Maggie
E B A A/G# F#m E
When you and I were young
