Maggie Chords

(ver. 1)
Colin Hay
The other interpretation was close, but I don't think it was quite right, so I'll give
you mine.


Standard tuning Capo - 1st fret

Chords used:

Em - 022000
D - XX0232
C - X32010 (or Cadd9 in the chorus if you prefer: X32033)*
C/B - X20010
Am: X02210
G - 320033

Intro - Em - D - Em - C - C/B - Am - Em - G(hammer on the A string) - D

Verse:
Em      D                 Em     C   C/B  Am
When I first set eyes on you

          Em          G                   D
First you beat me up, then you kissed me too

Em          D              Em      C   C/B  Am
We'd throw stone into the sea

               Em            G            D
There were no others there, just you and me

Em            D                 Em      C   C/B   Am
I crossed the bridge and down the lane

            Em           G                     D
I knew I loved you then, you said you did the same

Chorus:

C G       C            G
Oh Maggie, what have you done?

C                  G                            D
I should've seen it coming, and to your side I'd run

C  G       C        G
Oh Maggie, come to me tonight

C     G                                 D
I will wait up for you, make sure you're alright

Em       D    Em    C   C/B   C   Em  G   D
I miss you



And then carry on with the following verses and chorus' the same.
I think this matches the album version, but props to Sam Wilson
who did the other one, I was trying it without a capo, a lot easier
with one. Comments welcome.

*Cheers to the folk who corrected me on the chorus
