Rod Stewart — Maggie May

[Verse 1] Wake up, Maggie I think I got somethin' to say to you It's late September And I really should be back at school [Chorus 1] I know I keep you amused But I feel I'm being used Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore You led me away from home Just to save you from being alone You stole my heart and that's what really hurts [Verse 2] The morning sun, when it's in your face Really shows your age But that don't worry me none In my eyes, you're everything [Chorus 2] I laughed at all of your jokes My love you didn't need to coax Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore 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 [Verse 3] All I needed was a friend To lend a guiding hand But you turned into a lover, and mother, what a lover You wore me out [Chorus 3] All you did was wreck my bed And in the morning kick me in the head Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried anymore 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 [Guitar Solo] [Verse 4] I suppose I could collect my books And get on back to school Or steal my daddy's cue And make a living out of playing pool [Chorus 4] 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 [Instrumental Interlude] [Outro] Maggie, I wished I'd never seen your face I'll get on back home one of these days Ooh, ooh, ooh
