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

     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

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

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
