Colonel Maggie
Recorded by Roger Miller
Written by Dennis Linde

C F
Colonel Maggie is my friend
D7 G7 C
She got my self respect right back for me
F
Colonel Maggie is my friend
D7 G7 C
With good old motherly sweet sympathy

F C
Flat down on the street with a bottle at my feet
F C G7
Gutter life and wine was all I craved
C F C
Then she came up to me from the Salvation Army
F C G7
She thought that I was good enough to save

repeat #1

F C
She helped me to my feet and she got me off the street
F C G7
I was far too sick to look ashamed
C F C
Some soup and hot tea and a blanket over me
F C G7
And when we talked she called me by my name

repeat #1

F C
Well that was years ago now I don't drink no more
F C G7
And rest her soul old Maggie's dead and gone
C F C
And when my will-powers weak I walk back to that street
F C G7
And Colonel Maggie seems to walk along

repeat #1
