A G D
Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you
A G D
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
[Chorus]
Em F#m Em A
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Em A Em A
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
Em A D
You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts
[Verse]
A G D
The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age
A G D
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
[Chorus]
Em F#m Em A
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Em A Em A
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
Em A D
You stole my soul that's a pain I can do without
[Verse]
A G D
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
A G
But you turned into a lover and mother
D
what a lover you wore me out
G D
All you did was wreck my bed,
G A
and in the morning kick me in the head
[Chorus]
Em F#m Em A
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Em A Em A
You led me away from home, 'cause you didn't want to be alone
Em A D
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried
[Solo 1]

[Verse]
A G D
I suppose I should collect my books and get back to school
A G D
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
[Chorus]
Em F#m Em A
Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face
Em A
You made a first class fool out of me,
Em A
but I'm as blind as a fool can be
Em A D
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
