Maggie Mae - Rod Stewart
[D] [Em] [G] [D] [Bm A>
[A] Wake up Maggie, I [G] think I've got something to
[D] say to you
It's [A] late September and I [G] really should be
[D] back at school
I [G] know I keep you a[D]mused
But I [G]feel I'm being [A]used
Oh [Em] Maggie, I couldn't have [F#m] tried any
[Em] more [Em] [Em - - D]
You [Em] led me away from [A] home
Just to [Em] save you from being a[A]lone
You [Em] stole my heart and [A] that's what really h[D]urts
The morning sun when it's in your eyes really shows your age But
that don't worry me none, in my eyes you're everything
I laughed at all of your jokes
My love you didn't need to coax
Oh Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more
You led me away from home
Just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's a pain I can do without
All I needed was a friend to lend a helping 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 led 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 collecd my books and go on back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living at playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band
That needs a helping hand
Oh Maggie, I wished 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
You stole my heart but I love you anyway
(Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face
I'm gonna get back home
One of these days)
