Intro:
A G D (2)
Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you
A G D (2)
It's late September and I really should be back at school
G D G A
I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used
Em F#m Em Asus4
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more
Em A Em A
You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone
Em G (½) A (½)
D (2)
You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts
A G D (2)
The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age
A G D (2)
But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything
G D G A
I laughed at all your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax
Em F#m Em Asus4
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more
Em A Em A
You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone
Em G (½) A (½) D (2)
You stole my soul that's a pain I can do without
A G D (2)
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
A G D (2)
But you turned into a lover and mother what a lover you wore me out
G D G A
All you did was wreck my bed and in the morning kick me in the head
Em F#m Em Asus4
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more
Em A Em A
You lured me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone
Em G (½) A (½) D (2)
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried

A G D (2)
I suppose I should collect my books and get back to school
A G D (2)
Or steal my daddy's cue make a living out of playing pool
G D G A
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand
Em F#m Em Asus4
Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face
Em A Em A
You made a first class fool out of me, but I'm as blind as a fool can be
Em G (½) A (½) D (2)
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
