Shake the Sugar Tree Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Love you're gettin' [D]lazy
You're forgettin' to give me
[G]Sweet sugar words that I [D]want to hear
You've been neg[A]lectin' me
You know jealousy,
it is bitter as a green spring [D]berry

[Verse 2]
You're [D]like fruit from a fickle vine
You turn sweet in the nick of time
[G]Love, you only come alive
when you're [D]losin' me
And it's a [A]childish game
I've got to shake you up
just to wake you up
To make you [D]love me

[Verse 3]
[D]I'll shake the sugar tree
Till I feel your love falling
[G]All[A] aro[D]und me
You've got to [A]tend to what
you've planted
And if you take my love for granted baby
[D]I'll [A]shake the [G]sugar tree
[D]

[Verse 4]
Another night and you're sleepin'
I'm awake and I'm dreamin'
[G]Oh honey 'bout the way you use[D]d to be
A little [A]time's gone by
Now do you think that I'm content
With the cookin' and
the payin' of the rent
No, I want to know if your [D]love's all spent

[Verse 5]
I'll [D]shake the sugar tree
Till I feel your love falling
[G]All[A] aro[D]und me
You've got to [A]tend to what
you've planted
And if you take my love for granted baby
[D]I'll [A]shake the [G]sugar tree
[D]

[Verse 6]
[Am]I've got to raise some[E] commotion
[Am]Before you show me
[E]Some real emo[A]tion
