 when you and i were young ,  maggie
music by james austin butterfield  ( 1837 - 1891 ) 
lyrics derived from the poem \"when you and i were young\" by george washington johnson  ( 1846 - 1914 ) 

this song has been performed by many people in many different styles from the lyrical
beauty of the irish tenor john mccormack who recorded it in 1925  ( available on youtube ) to
all manner of bluegrass ,  dixieland ,  country and folk styles .  i like to play and sing it 
in A slightly dylanesque fashion hence the Dsus and the a7addG chords in this version . 

the lyrics vary from version to version and often verse 2 is omitted but here i have
used the words from the original score published by j A butterfield and co ,  indianapolis in
1866 so you may mix and match as you please .  the published score differs slightly from 
johnsons original poem and i have marked associated lines with  *  and annotated these at
the end for information .  the chorus was not part of the original poem .
