[Verse 1]
[D]Maggie Jones
Maggie she was a homely maiden
And Maggie owned [A]a homely [D]apple [A]tree
Sweet [D]Maggie's face with
freckles were laden
In [A]fact, [D]you were [A]homelier than [D]me.
I'll [A]never miss [D]this charm[G]ing [D]duty
To one even[A]ing in passing fly.
She said [D]if I'd help her
pick some apples,
She'd [A]make me [D]an apple [A]pie.[D]
So I climbed up the old apple tree,
For a pie was the real thing to be.
She stood down below
[A]with [D]her apron spread so,
[A]to catch all the apples you see.
It looked [D]like a picnic for me,
but the limb [A]broke [D]a -holding [A]me.[D]
I broke seven bones and a
few Maggie [G]Jones,
[D]in the shade of the old apple tree.

[D][A][D][A][D][A][D]
My dear old dad, he was a great fighter,
and ma 'am was a fighter [A]too.
But [D]while fighting, dear old father,
when [A]he used to beat him [D]black and blue,
Old Dad would find [A]a
[D]soft [G]spot [D]in the barn
and sleep a little jag [A]away.
But one [D]good thing about my
dear old parents,
they'd never fight in the house, say.
Because they would go out
beneath the old apple tree,
where they'd have much more [A]room,
[D]don't you see?
Man would start in [A]with [D]a big rolling pin
and pound him till he could [A]not see.
They were fight[D]ing near the beehive
and they found that the bees
[A]were [D]alive.
They didn't touch more,
but oh [G]boy, [D]they did [G]fall in [D]the shade of [A]the old
apple [D]tree.[A][D][A][D][A][D]
Thank for watching.
