TITLE: Sugaree
Lyrics and Chords
[Capo 2]
When they come to take you down
When they bring that wagon round
When they come to call on you
And drag your poor body down
/ A - D Dsus4D / / / /
{Bridge}
Just one thing I ask of you
Just one thing for me
Please forget you knew my name
My darlin' Sugaree
/ Em - Bm - / G - D - / A - Bm - / G - D - /
{Refrain}
Shake it, shake it Sugaree
Just don't tell them that you know me
Shake it, shake it Sugaree
Just don't tell them that you know me
/ A - D Dsus4D / Bm - G D / :
You thought you was the cool fool
Never could do no wrong
You had everything sewed up tight
How come you lay awake all night long
{Bridge, refrain}
You know in spite of all you gained
You still have to stand out in the pouring rain
One last voice is calling you
And I guess it's time you go
{Bridge, refrain}
Shake it up now, shake it Sugaree
I'll meet you at the jubilee
And if that jubilee don't come
Baby I'll meet you on the run
{Bridge, refrain twice}
... / Bm - G - D - /
