Chords

The other interpretation was close, but I don't think it was quite right, so I'll give you mine. Chords used: Dm - 022000 C - XX0232 F - X32010 (or Cadd9 in the chorus if you prefer: X32033)* F/E - X20010 Dm: X02210 C - 320033 Intro - Em - D - Em - C - C/B - Am - Em - G(hammer on the A string) - D Verse:

Dm      C                 Dm     F   F/E  Dm
When I first set eyes on you

          Dm          C                   C
First you beat me up, then you kissed me too

Dm          C              Dm      F   F/E  Dm
We'd throw stone into the sea

               Dm            C            C
There were no others there, just you and me

Dm            C                 Dm      F   F/E   Dm
I crossed the bridge and down the lane

            Dm           C                     C
I knew I loved you then, you said you did the same

Chorus:

F C       F            C
Oh Maggie, what have you done?

F                  C                            C
I should've seen it coming, and to your side I'd run

F  C       F        C
Oh Maggie, come to me tonight

F     C                                 C
I will wait up for you, make sure you're alright

Dm       C    Dm    F   F/E   F   Dm  C   C
I miss you

And then carry on with the following verses and chorus' the same. I think this matches the album version, but props to Sam Wilson who did the other one, I was trying it without a capo, a lot easier with one. Comments welcome. *Cheers to the folk who corrected me on the chorus
