Capo 2

verse 1
Am           G
I fell in love with the Shaker's daughter
Dm            F
She fell in love with the things that I bought her
 Am          G
A hatpin and pearls, a portrait from Nice
Dm            F
Nankeen and silk from the far, far East
     C     G  Am
And it's love, for now, love


verse 2
          G
I sat by the road, she passed my way
 Dm           F
I gave her a smile and I asked her to stay
  Am         G
My fiddle was fine, my apple was sweet
 Dm          F
I offered a tune and a bite to eat
     C     G  Am
And it's love, for now, love

  C  F      C
And she, she said to me
 F         C
I don't belong with thee
  G          Am G
Continue with your hunt
  C  F     C
And I, I made my appeal
 F         C
I said this love is real
  G          Am G Am G
And you're the one I want


verse 3
  Am            G
We sat on the bank where the waters glide
  Dm           F
Her father appeared and we could not hide
  Am        G
She took to her feet, ran to his arms
Dm            F
Pleaded with him that she never meant harm
     C     G  Am
And it's love, for now, love


verse 4
Am        G
He whispered low into her ear
Dm         F
What he told her, I could not hear
  Am        G
He did not bend and she turned to go
   Dm           F
That Shaker and I, we stood toe to toe
     C     G  Am
And it's love, for now, love

  C  F      C
And she, she said to me
 F         C
I don't belong with thee
  G          Am G
Continue with your hunt
  C  F     C
And I, I made my appeal
 F         C
I said this love is real
  G          Am G Am G
And you're the one I want

  C  F      C
And she, she said to me
 F         C
I don't belong with thee
  G          Am G
Continue with your hunt
  C  F     C
And I, I made my appeal
 F         C
I said this love is real
  G          Am G Am G Am
And you're the one I want
