     C                                          Em 
Mama stood on the front porch ringing her hands 
            C                                        Em 
Watched the tail lights fading on his black Trans Am 
         C                                      Em 
With her precious little baby taking off inside 
C                                     Em 
Staring at him with stars in her eyes 
             C                                                   Em 
She tried to tell her, but the girl might as well have been deaf 
    C                                       Em 
She wasn't gonna listen to a word she said 


G Am Em Don't go down Maggie Creek Road C D Em With a boy looking like that G Am Em He'll tell ya things that you wanna hear C D Em And there'll be no turning back G Am Em There's an oak tree down by the lake C D Em In the shade where the wild flowers grow G Am What'll happen only heaven knows C B7 Em So don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Instrumental: Am Em D Em Am Em D C Em Was a still black night as dark as coal C Em Nobody heard her when she said 'No' C Em She kicked and screamed and got free somehow C Em Tore her dress on the door when he pushed her out C Em She walked thirteen miles on the gravel road C Em With tears in her eyes, twenty years ago
G Am Em Don't go down Maggie Creek Road C D Em With a boy looking like that G Am Em He'll tell ya things that you wanna hear C D Em And there'll be no turning back G Am Em There's an oak tree down by the lake C D Em In the shade where the wild flowers grow G Am What'll happen only heaven knows C B7 Em So don't go down Maggie Creek Road
Instrumental: D C D C B Em Am Em D Em Am Em D C Em Somehow mama's always know C Em 'Cause they should have been home an hour ago C Em When she pulled up, it was just going down C Em She turned her headlights off, didn't make a sound C Em She heard her baby crying 'No', but he wouldn't stop C Em Her heart went cold and her blood ran hot C Em With a pistol in her hand, she opened his door C Em You don't wanna see mama go to war
G Am Em Don't go down Maggie Creek Road C D Em With a boy looking like that G Am Em He'll tell ya things that you wanna hear C D Em And there'll be no turning back G Am Em There's an oak tree down by the lake C D Em In the shade where the wild flowers grow G Am What'll happen only heaven knows C B7 C B7 So don't go down, I say, don't go down
