Wake up Maggie, [G] I think I've got something [D] to say to you.
_ _ _ [A] It's late September and [G] I really should be [D]
back at school.
_ _ _ [G] I know I keep [D] you amused, but I [G]
feel I'm being [A] used.
_ [Em] Oh Maggie, I [F#m] couldn't have tried _ [Em] anymore.
_ _ _ You _ led me away [A] from home, [Em] just to save you from being [A] _ alone.
[Em] You stole my heart [A] and that's what [D] really hurts.
_ _ _ _ _ [A] The morning sun [G] when it's in your face [D] really shows your age.
_ _ _ [A] But that don't worry [G] me none, in my eyes [D] you're everything.
_ _ _ _ [G] I laugh at all of [D] your jokes, my [G] love you didn't need [A] to coax.
_ [Em] Oh Maggie, I couldn't [F#m] have tried _ [Em] anymore.
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [Em] You led me away [A] from home, [Em] just to save you from being [A] alone.
_ [Em] You stole my soul and [A] that's a pain [G] I can do [D] without.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] All I needed [G] was a friend to lend [D] a guiding hand.
_ _ _ [A] But you turned into a lover [G] and mother, what a lover [D] you wore me out.
_ _ _ _ [G] All you did was wreck [D] my bed, and [G] in the morning kicked me in [A] the head.
_ [Em] Oh Maggie, I couldn't [F#m] have tried [Em] _ anymore.
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [Em] You led me away [A] from home, _ [Em] cause you didn't want to be [A] alone.
_ [Em] You stole my heart, I [A] couldn't leave [D] you if I tried.

_ [Bm] _ [G] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] I suppose I [G] could collect my books and [D] get on back to school.
_ [Bm] _ [D] _ [A] Or steal my [G] daddy's cue and make a living [D] out of playing pool.
_ _ Or [G] find myself a rock and [D] roll band _ [G] that needs a [A] helping hand.
_ [Em] Oh Maggie, I wish [F#m] I'd never seen [Em] your _ face.
_ _ [F#m] You [Em] made a first class fool [A] out of me, _ [Em] but I'm as blind as a fool [A] can be.
_ [Em] You stole my heart, [A] but I love you _ [D] anyway.

_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ I'll get on back _ [Em] home.
