By the farmhouse on the hillside late one autumn day

Verse 2:
EmAdd9Emadd9
Little barefoot Millie skipped towards the south
D MajorD
Mum had hung the washing and was back inside the house
  EmAdd9Emadd9
And tagging along was Dasher as Millie passed behind the hill
D MajorD      D/C#    D/B D/AD/A  G+G  A augmentedA D MajorD
Leaving the yard by the farmhouse, deathly still

Leaving that yard by the farmhouse, deathly still

Verse 3:
EmAdd9Emadd9
Little barefoot Millie, her mother wept in vain
  D MajorD
It echoed up the hillside, drifted back again
  EmAdd9Emadd9
She checked the sheds, checked the dam and put the word around
    D MajorD    D/C#  D/B  D/AD/A  G+G  A augmentedA  D MajorD
And the search began for Millie as the sun went down
  D MajorD    D/C#  D/B  D/AD/A  G+G  A augmentedA  D MajorD
The search began for Millie as the sun went down

Chorus:
EmAdd9Emadd9  D MajorD
Millie
EmAdd9Emadd9  A augmentedA
Millie

Verse 4:
EmAdd9Emadd9
Little barefoot Millie, the desperate searchers cried
    D MajorD
As the little girl lay sleeping, and protected by her side
  EmAdd9Emadd9
And that’s how Uncle Andy found her after dawn
    D MajorD    D/C#  D/B D/AD/A G+G  A augmentedA  D MajorD
Curled up with her dog Dasher, safe and warm
    D MajorD    D/C#  D/B D/AD/A G+G  A augmentedA  D MajorD
Curled up with her dog Dasher, safe and warm

Verse 5:
    EmAdd9Emadd9
He was lively in the litter, that faithful working dog
D MajorD
He and barefoot Millie were like two peas in a pod
       EmAdd9Emadd9
And when they asked that little girl, where were you, Millie Kwast?
        D MajorD   D/C#  D/B D/AD/A   G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
She said, I was lying next to Dasher, I was never lost
   D MajorD   D/C#  D/B D/AD/A   G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
I was lying next to Dasher, I was never lost

Chorus:
EmAdd9Emadd9      D MajorD
Millie, oh little Millie, little barefoot Millie

Millie, oh little Millie, little barefoot Mille
