E5                   E5 
Love, you're gettin lazy 
E5                    E5 
You're forgetting to give me 
A5               A5            E5              E5 
Sweet sugar,    words that I want to hear 
              B5            B5 
You've been neglecting me 
         B5               B5                        E5           E5 
You know jealousy, it is bitter as a green spring berry 
              E5 
And just like fruit from a fickle vine 
E5                     
You turn sweet in the nick of time 
A5                                     E5
Love, you only come alive when you're losin me 
           B5              
And it's a childish game 
            
I've got to shake you up, just to wake you up
            E5 
To make you love me 
 
CHORUS:
             E5         E5         E5                 E5 
        I'll shake the sugar tree 'til I feel your love falling 
        A5      B5       E5         E5 
        All.......... around me 
                      B5                  B5     
        You've got to tend to what you planted 
                   B5                 B5 
        And if you take my love for granted 
                   E5     B5         A5            A5 
        Baby, I'll shake...... the sugar tree 
 
BREAK:

E5 
Another night and you're sleeping 

I'm awake and I'm dreaming 
A5                                E5
Oh honey,  'bout the way that it used to be  
         B5
A little time's gone by 
        
Do you think that I'm con-tent 
                       
With the cookin and thepayin' of rent 
                           E5
No, I wanna know if you're love's all spent  
 
(CHORUS AND BREAK) 
 
BRIDGE: 
        B5 \....                    F#5 \....   
             I've got to raise some       commotion 
        B5 \....                F#5 \....                  B5 \ \ \ \  B5 \ \ \ \ 
             Before you show me      some real emotion 
 
(CHORUS - REPEAT AND FADE) 
I like to play B5 instead of B5 in the verses.  I also like to play B5 in 

place of E5 in the last half bar of verses 2 and 3 (leading into chorus).
