#1.
Bb
I'm findin' out what love is all about.

And every day, at three, when school lets out..
Dm7                  Eb
I see my baby, I get weak in the knees.
Bb
There's nothing shaking, but the leaves on the trees.
F                      Eb
Why must she be such a doggone tease?
Bb
There's nothing shaking, but the leaves on the trees.

#2.
Bb
We meet the gang and go to Rockin' Joe's.
Bb
The cats are stomping on their heels and toes.
Dm7                       Eb                        
I grab my baby, trying to give her a squeeze.
Bb
There's nothing shaking, but the leaves on the trees.
F                           Eb
My daddy told me there'd be times like these.
Bb
There's nothing shaking, but the leaves on the trees.

CHORUS:
Eb                                             Bb
She's got a way that makes me act like a fool..she spends 

my money, then she plays me cruel.
Eb                                          C
I'm begging for her kisses on bended knees..give me some 
              F
lovin', baby, please, please, please?

#3.
Bb
But I'll keep trying hard to make her mine..some day, the 

wind will blow and sun will shine.
Dm7                         Eb             Bb
Until that time she puts my heart at ease..there's nothing 

shaking, but the leaves on the trees.
F                             Eb             Bb
She locked my heart and threw away the keys..there's nothing 

shaking, but the leaves on the trees.
