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]
Dm Em Dm G
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Dm G Dm G
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
Dm 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]
Dm Em Dm G
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Dm G Dm G
You led me away from home just to save you from being alone
Dm 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]
Dm Em Dm G
Oh Maggie I couldn’t have tried anymore
Dm G Dm G
You led me away from home, 'cause you didn't want to be alone
Dm G C
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried
[Solo 1]

[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]
Dm Em Dm G
Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face
Dm G
You made a first class fool out of me,
Dm G
but I'm as blind as a fool can be
Dm G C
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
