A G D
Wake up, Maggie, I think I got something to say to you; It's
A G D
late September and I really should be back at school. I
G D G A
know I keep you amused, but I feel I'm being used, Oh
Em Em/D A F#m Em7 Asus A
Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore You
Em A Em A
lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone. You
Em A D
stole my heart and that's what really hurts. The
A G D
morning sun, when it's in your face, really shows your age. But
A G D
that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything. I
G D G A
laughed at all of your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax, Oh
Em Em/D A F#m Em7 Asus A
Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore. You
Em A Em A
lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone. You
Em A D
stole my heart and that's a pain I can do without.
A G D
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand. But
A G D
you turned into a alover, and Mother, what a lover! You wore me out.
G D G A
All you did was wreck my bed and in the morning kick me in the head,
Em Em/D A F#m Em7 Asus A
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more.
Em A Em A
You lured me away from home, 'cause you didn't want to be alone
Em A D
You stole my heart, I couldn't leave you if I tried.
A G D
I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school,
A G D
Or steal my Daddy's cue and make a loving out of playing pool,
G D G A
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helpin' hand
Em Em/D A F#m Em7 Asus A
Oh, Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face. You
Em A Em A
made a first class fool out of me, but I'm as blind as a fool can be,
you
Em A G7 D
stole my heart, but I love you anyway.
Em G D
Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face. I'll
Em G D
get on back home one of these days.
Em G D
Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face. I'll
Em G D
get on back home one of these days. [mandolin instrumental and
fade]
