[D#] [A]
Wake up Maggie,
[G] I think I've got something [D]
to say to you
[G]
[A] It's late September and I [G] really should be back at my [D] school
I [F#]
[G] know I keep you [D]
amused, [G] but I feel I'm [D] [A] being used
[Em] Oh Maggie, I [A] couldn't try [Em] anymore
[A] You [Em] led me away [Bm] from my [A] home [Em] just to save you [G] from being [A] alone
You [Em]
stole my heart, [A] but I love you [D] anyway
[A] [G]
[D]
[Em]
[G] [D]
[A] Morning sun [G] when it's in your face [D] really shows your age
[A] But that don't worry [G] me none, my eyes [D] show everything
I
[G] laughed at all [D] of your jokes, [G] my love you didn't [A] need to coax
[Em] Oh Maggie, I [F#m] couldn't have tried [Em] anymore
[D]
[A] [Em] You led me away [A] from home [Em] just to save you from being [A] alone
[Em] You stole my soul, [A] but I love [G] you [D] anyway
All
[A] I needed [G] was a friend to lend [D] a guiding hand
[A] But you turned into a lover, [G] a mother, what a lover
[D] You wore me out,
[Bm] [G] all you did was wreck [D] my bed
[G] And in the morning kicked me [A] in the head
[Em] Oh Maggie, I couldn't [F#m] have tried [Em] anymore
[A]
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 soul, [A] but I [G] love you [D] anyway
I
[Em] [A]
[D] [G]
[Bm] [Em] [D]
[A] suppose [G] I could collect my books [D] and get on back to school
[A] Or steal my [G] daddy's cube, make a living [D] out of playing pool
[G] Or buy myself a rock [D] and roll band [G] that needs a [A] helping hand
[Em] Oh Maggie, I couldn't [F#m] have tried [Em] anymore
[D]
[A] You [Em] led me away [A] from home [Em] just to save you from being [A] alone
You [Em] stole my soul, [A] and that's [G] why I feel [D] it hurts
[Em] [A]
[Bm] [D] [G]
[Bm] [Em] [Bm]
[A] [D]
[Em] [A]
[B] [D] [G]
[Bm] [Em] [G]

[G]
[D]
[G]
Maggie, [D]
I [Em] wish I'd never seen [D] your face
[Em]
[D]
I can't hold [Em] back one of these [D]
days
Oh [Em] [G] [D] Maggie
[Em]
[F#m] [G] [Em]
[D]
