Verse 1: 0:49
 A                   G
Wake up, Maggie, I think I got
              D        | D
Something to say to you:
      A                    G
It's late September and I really
           D            | D
Should be back at school.
1:03
    G               D
I know I keep you amused,
       G             A
But I feel I'm being used.
     Em
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have
  F#m     Em7 | Em7
Tried anymore.
1:18
     Em                 A
You lured me away from home,
         Em                   A
Just to save you from being alone.
      Em                 A
You stole my heart and that's what
        D   | D
Really hurts.

Verse 2: 1:33
     A                     G
The morning sun, when it's in your face,
         D           | D
Really shows your age.
      A                  G
But that don't worry me none; in my eyes
       D         | D
You're ev'rything.
1:48
   G                      D
I laughed at all of your jokes,
    G                       A
My love you didn't need to coax.
     Em
Oh, Maggie I couldn't have
  F#m     Em | F#m
Tried anymore.
2:03
     Em                 A
You lured me away from home,
         Em                   A
Just to save you from being alone.
      Em                    A
You stole my soul that's a pain
             D  | D
I can do without.

Verse 3: 2:18
A                   G
All I need was a friend to lend
    D         | D
A guiding hand.
          A                        G
But you turned into a lover, and, Mother, what a lover!
      D         | D
Your wore me out.
2:32
G                         D
All you did was wreck my bed,
            G                      A
And in the morning kick me in the head.
     Em
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have
  F#m     Em | F#m
Tried anymore.
2:47
     Em                 A
You lured me away from home
            Em                A
'Cause you din't want to be alone.
      Em                       A
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you
       D  | D
If I tried.

Verse 4: 3:18
A                     G
I suppose I could collect my books
         D            | D
And get back to school,
     A               G
Or steal my Daddy's cue and make a living out
     D         | D
Of playing pool,
3:32
    G                           D
Or find myself a rock and roll band
      G               A
That needs a helpin' hand,
     Em
Oh, Maggie, I wish
     F#m             Em | Em
I'd never seen your face.
3:47
            Em                      A
You made a first class fool out of me,
             Em                 A
But I'm as blind as a fool can be.
      Em                   A
You stole my heart, but I love you
G7  D | D
Anyway.
