[A] [E] What if I were a priest?
What if I were a priest?
We'd tell a [D#] yesteryear as I lay there sleeping.
A mystery poem, scan my [N] brain, then I'd gather round and listen close.
A story takes a turn, I was inferior.
[C#] Maggie's only lover I'd ever [E] heard.
I'm living by the oak tree, [E] looking for my laugh.
I walked east over levee with the [F] sunset in my path.
And [E] then I ran through bars and [F] rings, till I finally [C#] found
her Maggie [Em] and her true love [C#] there, lying on the ground.
[E] I'd be filled with fire, [F#] didn't see me there.
I watched as she made love to me, [D] rest in holy air.
[D#] I don't remember how it happened, guess I just saw her head.
I'd never [C] mind this one, throw my film and [E] shot them graveyard dead.

[Bm] Her name was Maggie Brown, [E] and now I'm nodding on the boxcar [B] back to Macon town.
The setting sun will never let me forget what deed I'd done,
[D] until the day they let [D#] me down.
I'm living [B] on [F#] the moon.
