Sugaree

G                 C
When they come to take you down
G                    C
When they bring that wagon 'round
G                 C
When they come to call on you
G                       C
And drag your poor body down


[CHORUS]
Am              F
Just one thing I ask of you,
Am              C
Just one thing for me
G                 Am
Please forget you knew my name,
   F           C
My darling Sugaree

G                 C
Shake it, shake it sugaree,
Am                          F   C
Just don't tell them that you know me
G                 C
Shake it, shake it sugaree,
Am                            F C
Just don't tell them that you know me


[VERSE 2]
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?


[CHORUS]
Am              F
Just one thing I ask of you,
Am              C
Just one thing for me
G                 Am
Please forget you knew my name,
   F           C
My darling Sugaree

G                 C
Shake it, shake it sugaree,
Am                          F   C
Just don't tell them that you know me
G                 C
Shake it, shake it sugaree,
Am                            F C
Just don't tell them that you know me


[VERSE 3]
Well shake it up now Sugaree,
I'll meet you at the jubilee
And if that jubilee don’t come,
Maybe I’ll meet you on the run


[CHORUS]
Am              F
Just one thing I ask of you,
Am              C
Just one thing for me
G                 Am
Please forget you knew my name,
   F           C
My darling Sugaree

G                 C
Shake it, shake it sugaree,
Am                          F   C
Just don't tell them that you know me
G                 C
Shake it, shake it sugaree,
Am                            F C
Just don't tell them that you know me


(The very last time only)

Am                            F C        G
Just don't tell them that you know-oh me
