MAGGIE MAY BY ROD STEWART


D                             C                                     G
Wake up, Maggie, I think I got some—thing 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          Am7
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.
       D                                  C                              G
The morning sun, when it's in your face really shows your age.
        D                             C                                  G
But that don't worry me none; in my eyes you're everything.
    C                               G              C                                 D
I laughed at all of your jokes, my love you didn't need to coax,
       Am                               Bm         Am7
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 soul that's a pain I can do without.
 D                             C                     G
All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand.
                D                                C                                      G
But you turned into a lover and Mother what a lover your wore me out.
 C                                       G                      C                                 D
All you did was wreck my bed, and in the morning kick me in the head,
          Am                     Bm         Am
Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried any more.
       Am                              D                    Am                             D
You lured me away from home,     'cause you did'nt want to be alone.
        Am                                  D                   G
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried.
       D                         C                                G
I suppose I could collect my books and get back to school.
        D                        C                                          G
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool.
    C                                        G              C                          D
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helping hand,
      Am                        Bm                     Am
Oh, Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face.
                    Am                              D                      Am                    D
You made a first class fool out of me,    but I'm as blind as a fool can be.
        Am                           D                   G
You stole my heart, but I love you anyway.
G              Am                 C              G
Maggie, I wish I never seen your face.
G                        Am                C          G
I'll get on back home one of these days.
