A5                                     D    A5
Margaret came to me was all he said

A5                                     D    A5
before she knew my name she was in my bed

A5                                     D    A5
she was only sweet sixteen

A5                                     D    A5
20,000 days younger than me



Pre-chorus:  0:59- 1:31

D                              A5
"Marry me" she said I don't reply

D                                   A5
"Daddy said you better, or you'll die"

D                                     A5
she wants a house and fifteen kids I guess she does my love

D                                    A5
and I can't find a state we're legal in

Play Rhy. Fig. 1

A5                                       D    A5
Margaret feels the world beneath her feet

A5                                     D    A5
shaking like a leaf falls from the tree

A5                                     D    A5
she don't care he's ten years older than me

A5                                               D    A5
as long as they're together happily, who says they will

"Daddy said you better, or you'll die"

D                                     A5
she wants a house and fifteen kids I guess she does my love

D                                    A5
and I can't find a state we're legal in
