Wake up Maggie I think I've got something to say to you

D C G

It's late september and I really should be back at school

C G C D

I know I keep you amused But I feel I'm being used

Am Bm Am Bm

Oh Maggie I couldn`t have tried any more

Am D Am D

You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone

Am D G

You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts

The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age

But that don't worry me none , in my eyes you're everything

I laughed at all your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax

Oh Maggie I couldn`t have tried any more

You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone

You stole my sole that's a pain I can do without

All I needed was was a friend to lend a guiding hand

But you turned into a lover and Mother what a lover you wore me out

All you did was wreck my bed And in the morning kick me in the head

Oh Maggie I couldn`t have tried any more

You lured me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone

You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school

Or steal my daddy's cue make a living out of playing pool

Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand

Oh Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face

You made a first class fool out of me But I'm as blind as a fool can be

Am D C G

You stole my heart but I love you anyway

Intro part again

Maggie I wish I've never seen your face
