INTRO: G+G
VERSE:
G+G E minorEm
Let me tell you a story
C majorC G+G
About an old friend of mine
G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 E minorEm
Somebody left her in a shopping cart
C majorC D MajorD
In a parking lot for us to find
G+G E minorEm
Just a fuzzy black pup
C majorC G+G
She was hungry and feeling alone
G+G E minorEm
We put her in the back seat
C majorC G+G
Told her we were taking her home
CHORUS:
G+G G/BG/B
Run, Maggie, run
C majorC G+G
With the heart of a rebel child
G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7
Oh, run, Maggie, run
C majorC G+G
Be just as free as you are wild
VERSE:
G+G E minorEm
A augmentedA few kids later
C majorC G+G
We moved out on the farm
G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 E minorEm
And she followed those kids around
D MajorD C majorC D MajorD
Yeah, she kept them safe from harm
G+G E minorEm
And she loved to chase squirrels
C majorC G+G
And playing out in the snow
G+G E minorEm
She'd take off like a bullet
C majorC G+G
Man, you should have seen her go
CHORUS:
G+G G/BG/B
Run, Maggie, run
C majorC G+G
With the heart of a rebel child
G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7
Oh, run, Maggie, run

Be just as free as you are wild

VERSE:
G+G E minorEm
It was raining on a Monday
C majorC G+G
The day that Maggie died
G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 E minorEm
She woke up and couldn't use her legs
C majorC D MajorD
So I laid down by her side
G+G E minorEm
She put her head on my hand
C majorC G+G
Like she'd done so many times
G+G E minorEm
I told her she was a good dog
C majorC G+G
Then I told her goodbye
CHORUS:
G+G G/BG/B
Run, Maggie, run
C majorC G+G
With the heart of a rebel child
G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7
Oh, run, Maggie, run
C majorC G+G
Be just as free as you are wild
OUTRO:
G+G E minorEm
I had a revelation
C majorC G+G
As the tractor dug a hole
G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 E minorEm D MajorD
I can tell you right now
C majorC D MajorD
That a dog has a soul
G+G E minorEm
And I thought to myself
C majorC G+G
As we buried her on the hill
G+G E minorEm
I never knew me a better dog
C majorC G+G
And I guess I never will
