Maggies Song chords by Don Williams

Chords with lyrics

Verse:
G+G              C majorC
Maggie's up each morning at four am
  G+G               C majorC
By five behind the counter at the diner
    G+G                  C majorC
And her trucker friends out on the road will soon be stopping in
    FF        C majorC  D7D7   G+G
As the lights go on at Cafe Carol-ina


 G+G                 C majorC
Maggie's been a waitress here most all her life
G+G                C majorC
Thirty years of coffee cups and sore feet
  G+G                   C majorC
The mountains around Ashville she's never seen the other side
  FF       C majorC       D7D7 G+G
And closer now to fifty than to for-ty

Chorus:
     C majorC          G+G
Maggie's never had a love she said she's never had enough
C majorC    D7D7     G+G         C majorC
Time to let a man into her life aw but Maggie has a dream
   G+G               C majorC   D7D7        G+G
She's had since she was seventeen to find a husband and be a wife


Verse:
G+G            C majorC
Maggie knows the truckers most by first name
G+G                     C majorC
What they'll have to say and what they'll order
     G+G              C majorC
And they take her in their stories to places far away
     FF         C majorC         D7D7  G+G
And then leave her with the dishes dreams and quar-ters


Chorus:
     C majorC          G+G
Maggie's never had a love she said she's never had enough
C majorC    D7D7     G+G         C majorC
Time to let a man into her life aw but Maggie has a dream
   G+G               C majorC   D7D7        G+G
She's had since she was seventeen to find a husband and be a wife


     DmDm
And she relies upon the jukebox on the lonely afternoon
       C majorC
But when the business starts to slow down she plays the saddest tunes
    FF          C majorC        FF        C majorC
And she stares off down the highway and she wonders where it goes
                       D7D7
Nobody to go home to and it's almost time to close
