Wake up Maggie I think I've got
D
something to say to you
A
It's late September and
I really should be back at school
G D
I know I keep you amused,
G A
but I feel I'm being used
Em
Oh Maggie,
F#m Em
I couldn`t have tried any more
Em A
You led me away from home,
Em A
just to save you from being alone
Em
You stole my heart,
A G D
and that's what really hurts
(Page 1/4)
A
The morning sun,
G
when it's in your face,
D
really shows your age
A G
But that don't worry me none,
D
in my eyes you're everything
G D
I laughed at all your jokes,
G A
my love you didn't need to coax
Em
Oh Maggie,
F#m Em
I couldn`t have tried any more
Em A
You led me away from home just
Em A
to save you from being alone
Em
You stole my soul that's
A G D
a pain I can do without
(Page 2/4)
A G
All I needed was a friend
D
to lend a guiding hand
A
But you turned into a lover and
G
mother, what a lover
D
you wore me out
G D
All you did was wreck my bed,
G A
and in the morning kick me in the head
Em
Oh Maggie,
F#m Em
I couldn`t have tried any more
Em A
You led me away from home
Em A
'cause you didn't want to be alone
Em
You stole my heart,
A G D
I couldn't leave you if, I tried
(Page 3/4)
Em A D G Em G D
A G
I suppose I should collect my books and
D
get back to school
A G
Or steal my daddy's cue,
D
make a living out of playing pool
G D
Or find myself a rock and roll band,
G A
that needs a helping hand
Em
Oh Maggie,
F#m Em
I wished 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
You stole my heart but
A D
I love you anyway
