This was written by the late great Fats Waller, most people have heard the Leon Redbone version of it
<B>Ain't Misbehavin</B>
E7 C#m7 F#m7 B7
No one to talk to, all by myself;
E7 G#7 A7 Am Am7
No one to walk with, I'm happy on the shelf;
E7 C#m7 F#m7 B7 E C#m7 F#7 B7
Ain't misbehavin, I'm saving my love for you.
E7 C#m7 F#m7 B7
Now it's for certain, the one I love;
E7 G#7 A7 Am Am7
I'm through with flirtin' it's just you I'm thinkin' of.
E7 C#m7 F#m7 B7 E A7 B7 G#7
Ain't misbehavin, I'm saving my love for you.
Bridge:
C#m7 A7
Like Jack Horner, in the corner,
F#7 C#7
Don't go no where -- what do I care?
F#7 C#m7 F#7 B7 C B7
Your kisses are worth waiting for, believe me.
E7 C#m7 F#m7 B7
I don't stay out late, don't care to go;
E7 G#7 A7 Am Am7
I'm home about eight, just me and my rad-I-o.
E7 C#m7 F#m7 B7 E A Am7 E B7 E6
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for you.
Immature? Of course I'm immature Einstein, I'm 50 and in a Rock and ROll band.

"Don't wanna ride no shootin' star. Just wanna play on the rhythm guitar." Emmylou Harris, "Rhythm Guitar" from "The Ballad of Sally Rose"
Thank you for the song. I was listening to a Taylor promotional Cd (Sounds of Wood and Steel #3) and heard a version of it that was spectacular. I found a fingerpicking version that was beyond me so this is apropos. Hank Williams Jr. also does a nice version of it
Thanks for the great memory.
