Maggies Song

G                           C
Maggie's up each morning at four am
   G                              
By five behind the counter at the 
C
diner
        G                          
And her trucker friends out on the 
          C
road will soon be stopping in
       F               C  
As the lights go on at Cafe 
  D7      G
Carol-ina

  G                                
Maggie's been a waitress here most 
 C
all her life
G                               C
Thirty years of coffee cups and sore
 feet
    G                              
The mountains around Ashville she's
       C
 never seen the other side
    F             C             
And closer now to fifty than to 
D7  G
for-ty

[Chorus]
         C                    G
Maggie's never had a love she said 
she's never had enough
C       D7          G           
Time to let a man into her life 
       C
aw but Maggie has a dream
      G                            
She's had since she was seventeen 
  C      D7               G
to find a husband and be a wife


[Verse]
G                        C
Maggie knows the truckers most by 
first name
G                                 
What they'll have to say and what 
        C
they'll order
         G                         
And they take her in their stories 
   C
to places far away
         F                  C     
And then leave her with the dishes
            D7   G
 dreams and quar-ters


[Chorus]
         C                    G
Maggie's never had a love she said 
she's never had enough
C       D7          G           
Time to let a man into her life 
       C
aw but Maggie has a dream
      G                            
She's had since she was seventeen 
  C      D7               G
to find a husband and be a wife


          Dm
And she relies upon the jukebox on 
the lonely afternoon
             C
But when the business starts to slow
 down she plays the saddest tunes
        F                   C     
And she stares off down the 
          F                C
highway and she wonders where it 
goes
Nobody to go home to and it's almost
         D7
 time to close
