Maple On The Hill Chords by Mac Wiseman

Near a quiet country village,
[D] Dooder maple [A] on the hill. _ _
There I sat with my Janette a [E] long ago, _ _ _ _
[A] When the stars were shining brightly,
[D] We could hear the [A] whippoorwills,
As we sat beneath [E] the maple [A] on the hill. _ _
We would sing love songs together,
[D] When the birds had [A] gone to rest, _
[A] _ And we'd listen to the murmur [E] of the roost. _ _ _
[A] Then you'd throw your arms around me,
[D] Lay your head [A] upon my chest,
As we sat [E] beneath the maple [A] on the hill. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
Now we're getting old and feeble,
[D] And our hair is [A] turning grey,
We _ no longer hear the ripple [E] of the _ rill. _ _
[A] Still I'll always love you, darling,
[D] As I did those [A] starry nights,
When we sat [E] beneath the maple [A] on the hill. _ _
_ Don't forget me later, darling,
[D] When they lay me [A] down to rest, _ _
Will you keep the final promise [E] that you gave? _ _ _
[A] While you linger there in silence,
[D] Thinking, darling, [A] of the past,
Near your teardrop kiss [E] the flowers on [A] my grave. _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ I will soon be with the angels
On that [D] bright and peaceful [A] show.
_ _ _ Even now I hear them coming over [E] hill.
_ _ _ [A] So good-bye, my little darling,
[D] It is time for [A] us to part,
I must leave you [E] and the maple [A] on the hill. _ _ _ _ _
