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

       A                    G                  D 
 It's late September and I real____ly should be   back at school
	
    G                     D          G                A
 I know I keep you amused,    but I feel I"m being used

     Em                     F#m       Em     D/F#
 Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

      Em               A              Em                   A
 You led me away from home   just to save you from being alone

       Em                A                   D
 You stole my heart and that's  what really hurts

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

      A                   G                       D  
 But that don't worry me none in my eyes you're everything

    G			       D           G                       A
 I laugh at all of your jokes,   my love you didn't need to coax

    Em                     F#m        Em
 Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

      Em               A            Em                    A
 You led me away from home just to save you from being alone

      Em                        A              D
 You stole my soul and that's a pain I can do without


 A                   G                D
 All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand

           A                     G                           D
 But you turned into a lover 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                      F#m       Em     D
 Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more

      Em                A              Em                 A
 You led 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

 
 INSTRUMENTAL BREAK:  Em,  A,  D,  G,  Em,  G,  G/A,  D
 
 A                      G                       D
 I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school

     A                   G                           D
 Or steal my daddy's cue   and make a living out of playing pool

     G                           D         G                 A
 Or find myself a Rock and Roll band that needs a helping hand

     Em                F#m             Em     D/F#
 Oh Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face

             Em                     A                Em                  A
 You made a first class fool out of me, but I'm as blind as a fool can be

      Em                   A             D
 You stole my heart but I love you anyway


 INSTRUMENTAL BREAK:

 D         Em        G              D
 Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face

 D		    Em    G             D
 I'll get  back home one of these days
