The other interpretation was close, but I don't think it was quite right, so I'll give
you mine.

Verse:
                                 
When I first set eyes on you

                                       
First you beat me up, then you kissed me too

                                   
We'd throw stone into the sea

                                       
There were no others there, just you and me

                                         
I crossed the bridge and down the lane

                                            
I knew I loved you then, you said you did the same

Chorus:

                    
Oh Maggie, what have you done?

                                              
I should've seen it coming, and to your side I'd run

                 
Oh Maggie, come to me tonight

                                      
I will wait up for you, make sure you're alright

                             
I miss you



And then carry on with the following verses and chorus' the same.
I think this matches the album version, but props to Sam Wilson
who did the other one, I was trying it without a capo, a lot easier
with one. Comments welcome.

*Cheers to the folk who corrected me on the chorus
