G# F# C#
Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you
G# F# C#
It's late September and I really should be back at school
F# C# F# G#
I know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used
[Chorus]
D#m Fm D#m G#
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
D#m G# D#m G#
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
D#m G# C#
You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts
[Verse]
G# F# C#
The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age
G# F# C#
But that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything
F# C# F# G#
I laughed at all your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax
[Chorus]
D#m Fm D#m G#
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
D#m G# D#m G#
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
D#m G# C#
You stole my soul that's a pain I can do without
[Verse]
G# F# C#
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
G# F#
But you turned into a lover and mother
C#
what a lover you wore me out
F# C#
All you did was wreck my bed,
F# G#
and in the morning kick me in the head
[Chorus]
D#m Fm D#m G#
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
D#m G# D#m G#
You led me away from home, 'cause you didn't want to be alone
D#m G# C#
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried
[Solo 1]
D#m G# C# F#
D#m F# C# C#
[Verse]
G# F# C#
I suppose I should collect my books and get back to school
G# F# C#
Or steal my daddy's cue make a living out of playing pool
F# C# F# G#
Or find myself a rock and roll band, that needs a helping hand
[Chorus]
D#m Fm D#m G#
Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face
D#m G#
You made a first class fool out of me,
D#m G#
but I'm as blind as a fool can be
D#m G# C#
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
