STEALING'
evidently by Gus Cannon
but I thought it was a 30's jug band song
I learned it in 1970 - from Jeffrey Burr - of Racine WVa
then recently the mumbly peg champion of Berea (KY) College
My arrangement was also worked over by Kenny Sobel
Bb --- capo @ 1

Put your (A/Bb)arms around me - [Baby/Darling']
Like a (A7/Bb7)circle 'round the sun
I (D/Eb)want you - to love me
like my easy rider (Dm/Ebm)done(Dm7/Ebm7--Dm/Ebm)

You don't be(A/Bb)lieve (E7/F7)I (A/Bb)love you
But look what a (A/Bb)fool - (E7/F7)I've (A/Bb)been
You don't be(A/Bb)lieve (E7/F7)I'm (A/Bb)sinking'
But look what a (A/Bb)hole - (E7/F7)I'm (A/Bb)in

You (A/Bb)said you love me
But you (A7/Bb7)know it ain't true
(D/Eb)Ev'ry time I [call you]
[I can't seem to get (Dm/Ebm)thru](Dm7/Ebm7--Dm/Ebm)

You don't be(A/Bb)lieve (E7/F7)I (A/Bb)love you
But look what a (A/Bb)fool - (E7/F7)I've (A/Bb)been
You don't be(A/Bb)lieve (E7/F7)I'm (A/Bb)sinking'
