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
