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 - /
