D Love, you're getting lazy. D You're forgetting to give me G D Sweet sugar,words that I wanna hear. A You been neglecting me, A D You know jealousy it is bitter as a green spring berry. And just like fruit from a fickle vine, You turn sweet in the nick o' time. G Love, you only come alive D When you're losing me. A And it's a childish game, I gotta shake you up just to wake you up D To make you love me. D I'll shake the sugar tree, G A D 'til I feel your love falling all around me. A You gotta tend to what you planted, And if you take my love for granted, baby, D A G I'll shake the sugar tree. D D Another night and you're sleeping, I'm awake and I'm dreaming. G D Oh honey, 'bout the way that it used to be. A A little time's gone by, Do you think that I'm content with the cooking and the payin' the rent? D No I wanna know if your love's all spent! D I'll shake the sugar tree, G A D 'til I feel your love falling all around me. A You gotta tend to what you planted, And if you take my love for granted, baby, D A G I'll shake the sugar tree. A E I've got to raise some commotion, A E Before you show me some real emotion. D I'll shake the sugar tree, G A D 'til I feel your love falling all around me. A You gotta tend to what you planted, And if you take my love for granted, baby, D A G I'll shake the sugar tree.
