In a quiet country village stood a Maple On The Hill
G5 D5
Where I sat with my Geneva long ago
G5 C5 G5
As the stars were shining brightly we could hear the whippoorwill
G5 D5 G5
As we sat beneath that Maple On The Hill
Fiddle Solo
G5 C5 G5
We would sing love songs together while the birds had gone to rest
G5 D5
We would listen to the murmur o'er the hill
G5 C5 G5
Will you love me little darling as you did those starry nights
G5 D5 G5
As we sat beneath that Maple On The Hill
guitar solo
G5 C5 G5
Don't forget me, little darling when they lay me down to die
G5 D5
Just one little wish, darling that I pray
G5 C5 G5
As you linger there in sadness thinking darling, of the past
G5 D5 G5
Lay your teardrops kiss the flowers on my grave
banjo solo
G5 C5 G5
I will soon be with the angels on that bright and peaceful shore
G5 D5
Even now I hear them coming o'er the hill
G5 C5 G5
So goodbye my little darling, it is time for us to part
G5 D5 G5
I must leave you and that Maple On The Hill
