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

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
