Blur – Maggie May (Guitar)

E
Wake up, Maggie,

   D                        A
I think I got something to say to you.

      E
It's late September and

    D               A
I really should be back at school.

    D               A
I know I keep you amused,

       D             E
But I feel I'm being used.

     Bm                       F#m      Bm       D
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried any mooooore.

     Bm               E
You led me away from home

        Bm                    E
Just to save you from being alone.

      Bm                E                   A
You stole my heart, and that's what really hurts.

E                     D
All I needed was a friend

           A
To lend a guiding hand.

          E                        D
But you turned into a lover, and, mother, what a lover

     A
You wore me out.

         Bm               F#m
All you did was wreck my bed,

            Bm                      E
And, in the morning, kick me in the head

     Bm                      F#m       Bm     D
Oh, Maggie, I couldn't have tried any more.

     Bm               E
You led me away from home

        Bm                    E
Just to save you from being alone.

      Bm                        E              A
You stole my heart. I couldn't leave you if I tried.

E                   D
I suppose I could collect my books

            A
And get on back to school.

   E                D
Or steal my daddy's cue

                           A
And make a living out of playing pool.

    D                           A
Or find myself a rock 'n' roll band

      D              E
That needs a helping hand.

     Bm                 F#m             Bm    D
Oh, Maggie, I wish I'd never seen your face.

            Bm                      E
You made a first-class fool out of me.

            Bm                  E
But I'm as blind as a fool can be.

     Bm                   E            A
You stole my heart, but I love you anyway.
