[Intro 1]
[C][Dm][F][C]
[C][Dm][F][C][Am][F]

[Verse 1]
[G]Wake up, Maggie,
I [F]think I got somethin' to [C]say to you
It's [G]late September
and I [F]really should be [C]back at school

[Pre-chorus 1]
I [F]know I keep you a[C]mused,
but I [F]feel I'm being [G]used

[Chorus 1]
Oh, [Dm]Maggie, I couldn't have [Em]tried any [Dm]more[C]
You [Dm]led me away from h[G]ome
Just to [Dm]save you from being a[G]lone
You [Dm]stole my heart
and [G]that's what really [C]hurts

[Verse 2]
The [G]mornin' sun when it's [F]in your face
really [C]shows your age
But [G]that don't worry me [F]none,
in my eyes, you're [C]everything

[Pre-chorus 2]
I [F]laughed at all of your [C]jokes,
my [F]love, you didn't need to [G]coax

[Chorus 2]
Oh, [Dm]Maggie, I couldn't have [Em]tried any [Dm]more[C]
You [Dm]led me away from h[G]ome
Just to [Dm]save you from being a[G]lone
You [Dm]stole my soul,
and that's a [G]pain I can [F]do [C]without

[Verse 3]
[G]All I needed was a [F]friend
to lend a [C]guiding hand
But you [G]turned into a lover,
and [F]mother, what a lover, you [C]wore me out

[Pre-chorus 3]
[F]All you did was wreck my [C]bed,
and in the [F]morning, kick me in the [G]head

[Chorus 3]
Oh, [Dm]Maggie, I couldn't have [Em]tried any [Dm]more[C]
You [Dm]led me away from h[G]ome
'Cause you [Dm]didn't wanna be a[G]lone
You [Dm]stole my heart,
I couldn't [G]leave you [F]if I [C]tried

[Solo 1]
[Dm][G][C][F]
[Dm][F][C][C]

[Verse 4]
[G]I suppose I could coll[F]ect my books
and get on [C]back to school
Or [G]steal my daddy's [F]cue
and make a living out of [C]playin' pool

[Pre-chorus 4]
Or [F]find myself a rock and roll [C]band
that [F]needs a helpin' [G]hand

[Chorus 4]
Oh, [Dm]Maggie, I wished I'd [Em]never
seen your fa[Dm]ce
[C]You made a fir[Dm]st-class fool out of me[G]
But I'm as [Dm]blind as a fool can [G]be
You [Dm]stole my heart,
but I [G]love you [F]any[C]way

[C][Dm][F][C]
I'll [C]get on back [Dm]home [F]one of these [C]days
[C]Ooh, ooh[Dm], ooh[F][C]
[Repeat and fade]
