<CHORUS>

                      G                    F           C                    G

Oh Maggie Mae, Maggie Mae, oh why don't you stay

                                                                         D

You know I’ve been so faithful and so true

                    G                     F           C                    G

Oh Maggie Mae, Maggie Mae, oh why don't you stay

                                     D                  G

Don't let my heart be lonesome for you

 

          C                                                   G

Two months ago you said you'd never leave me

          C                                                    G

But now you say that you won't be tied down

           C                                                G

When I came back I only thought to hold you

          A                                                D

But now I hear you're dating all over town

 

<CHORUS>

<BREAK> chorus

 

          C                                                   G

But tremble at each word you say, my darlin’

          C                                                       G

Cause I think I know just what you got in mind

        C                                                   G

In another year, but I can see the truth now

                     A                                        D

That you're movin’ on and leavin’ me behind
