Verse 1
D D7 G
I wandered today to the hill, Maggie
D A A7
To watch the scene below
D D7 G
The creek and the creaking old mill, Maggie
D A7addG D D7
Where we sat in the long, long ago.
G D
The green grove is gone from the hill, Maggie
A E7 A A7
Where first the daisies sprung
D D7 G
The creaking old mill is still, Maggie
D A7addG D Dsus4 D
Since you and I were young.
Chorus:
D D7 G
And now we are aged and grey, Maggie,
D A A7
And the trials of life nearly done,
D D7 G
Let us sing of the days that are gone Maggie
D A7addG D Dsus4 D
When you and I were young.
Verse 2
D D7 G
A city so silent and lone, Maggie
D A A7
Where the young and the gay and the best*
D D7 G
In polished white mansions of stone, Maggie
D A7addG D D7
Have each found a place of rest,*
G D
Is built where the birds used to play, Maggie
A E7 A A7
And join in the songs that were sung
D D7 G
For we sang just as gay as they, Maggie
D A7addG D Dsus4 D
When you and I were young. // ¦///
Chorus:
D D7 G
And now we are aged and grey, Maggie,
D A A7
And the trials of life nearly done,
D D7 G
Let us sing of the days that are gone Maggie
D A7addG D
When you and I were young.
Verse 3
D D7 G
They say I am feeble with age, Maggie,
D A A7
My steps are less sprightly than then,
D D7 G
My face is a well-written page, Maggie,*
D A7addG D D7
But time alone was the pen.
G D
They say we are aged and grey, Maggie,*
A E7 A A7
As sprays by the white breakers flung,*
D D7 G
But to me you're as fair as you were, Maggie,
D A7addG D Dsus4 D
When you and I were young. // ¦///
Chorus
D D7 G
And now we are aged and grey, Maggie,
D A A7
And the trials of life nearly done,
D G
Let us sing of the days that are gone Maggie
D A7addG D Dsus4
When You and I were young.
