Maggie's Song chords by Chris Stapleton And Miranda Lambert

INTRO: G


VERSE:
G          Em
Let me tell you a story
C         G
About an old friend of mine
G     Gmaj7      Em
Somebody left her in a shopping cart
C         D
In a parking lot for us to find

G         Em
Just a fuzzy black pup
C         G
She was hungry and feeling alone
G         Em
We put her in the back seat
C            G
Told her we were taking her home

CHORUS:
G       G/B
Run, Maggie, run
C        G
With the heart of a rebel child
G        Gmaj7
Oh, run, Maggie, run
C       G
Be just as free as you are wild

VERSE:
G      Em
A few kids later
C         G
We moved out on the farm
G       Gmaj7    Em
And she followed those kids around
D     C         D
Yeah, she kept them safe from harm

G            Em
And she loved to chase squirrels
C        G
And playing out in the snow
G            Em
She'd take off like a bullet
C             G
Man, you should have seen her go



CHORUS:
G       G/B
Run, Maggie, run
C        G
With the heart of a rebel child
G        Gmaj7
Oh, run, Maggie, run
C       G
Be just as free as you are wild


INSTRUMENTAL:

G G/B C G x2
.

VERSE:
G          Em
It was raining on a Monday
C        G
The day that Maggie died
G     Gmaj7       Em
She woke up and couldn't use her legs
C     D
So I laid down by her side

G       Em
She put her head on my hand
C       G
Like she'd done so many times
G          Em
I told her she was a good dog
C      G
Then I told her goodbye

CHORUS:
G       G/B
Run, Maggie, run
C        G
With the heart of a rebel child
G        Gmaj7
Oh, run, Maggie, run
C       G
Be just as free as you are wild

OUTRO:
G     Em
I had a revelation
C     G
As the tractor dug a hole
G    Gmaj7      Em D
I can tell you right now
C  D
That a dog has a soul

G          Em
And I thought to myself
C         G
As we buried her on the hill
G         Em
I never knew me a better dog
C       G
And I guess I never will
