Wake up Mag-gie I think I got 
 7     7   7  -8  -9 -8
Some-thing to say to you 
 -7   -7  -7  -7  -7  -7 -8  -7  7
It's late Sep-tem-ber and I real-ly 
   7   7   -9  -7   -8
should be back at school 
-5  6  7  -8  -7  7  -8 
I know I keep you a-mused 
-8  8  -9  10  -8  7   -7
but I feel I'm be-ing used 
-8  -8  -8  -7  7   7    6  -5 -4 -6*-6* -8 
Oh Mag-gie I could-n't have tried an-y more 
 6   -7   -7 7 -7   -8   -5
You lured me a-way from home 
 -9  -8  -7  -7    7  -7 -7 -8  -5
just to save you from be-ing a-lone 
 6    -7  -7  -7   -7    -9    10   -8  -7  7
You stole my heart and that's what real-ly hurts 

 6   -7  -7  -7   -7   -8  -7   7   7
The morn-ing sun when it's in your face 
 7   7   -8    -9  -8
Real-ly shows your age 
-8   -7   -7   -7  -7 -8  -7
But that don't wor-ry me none 
7  7   -9    -9   -8  7    7
in my eyes you're ev-‘ry-thing 
-5   6    7  -8  -7  7    -8
I laughed at all of your jokes 
-8  -9  -9  -9  -9   -8   7  -7
my love you did-n't need to coax 
-8 -8  -8  -7  7    7   6   -5 -4 -5-6*7-87-7
Oh Mag-gie I could-n't have tried an- y more 
 
 6    -7  -7 -7 -7  -8   -5
You lured me a-way from home 
 -9  -8  -7  -7   7   -7 -7 -8  -5
just to save you from be-ing a-lone 
 6   -77  -7  -7   -7  
You stole my soul that's 
-8 -9 -9 10  -8  -7   7
a pain I can do with-out 

-7 -7  -7  -7 -7 -8   -7
All I need-ed was a friend 
7   7   7  -8  -9   7 
to lend a guid-ing hand 
-8  -8    -7   -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -8
But you turned in-to a lov-er and 
 -7  7    7  7 -9  -9  -9   -8  7   7
Moth-er what a lov-er, you wore me out 
-5  -5   6   7   -8   7  -8
All you did was wreck my bed 
-8  -8 -8   -9  -9   -9  -9 -8  7   -7
and in the morn-ing kick me in the head 
-8 -8  -8 -7   7    7   6   -5 -4-5-6*7-87-7  
Oh Mag-gie I could-n't have tried an-y more 
 6    -7  -7 7 -7   -8   -5
You lured me a-way from home 
  -9   -8  -7  -7   -7  7  -7 -8 -5
'cause you did-n't want to be a-lone 
 6   -7   -7  -7
You stole my heart 
-7  -7  -8   -9   10  -8 -7  7
I could-n't leave you if I tried 

-7 -7  -7 -7  -7   -8   -7  7   7 
I sup-pose I could col-lect my books 
 7   7   -8  -9   -8
and get back to school 
-8   -7  -7 -7  -7   -8 
Or steal my dad-dy's cue 
-8   -7  7  7   7  -9  -9  -8   7   7
and make a liv-ing out of play-ing pool 
-5  6   6   7   7  -8  -7   7    -8
Or find my-self a rock and roll band 
 -8    -9 -9  -8  7    -7
that needs a help-in' hand 
-8 -8  -8 -7  7    6  -5  -4 -5-6* 7  -87-7
Oh Mag-gie I wish I’d nev-er seen your face 
 7   -7  7  -7    -7    -7  -7  -8 -5 
You made a first-class fool out of me  
-5  -9  -8   -7  -7 7  -7  -8  -5
But I'm as blind as a fool can be 
-5   -7   -8   7   -7* -8 -9  10 -7* 7  7
You stole my heart but I love you an-y-way
