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