No one to talk to, all by myself
No one to walk with, I'm happy on the shelf
Ain't misbehavin, I'm saving my love for you
Now it's for certain, the one I love
I through with flirtin' it's just you I'm thinkin' of
Ain't misbehavin, I'm saving my love for you
Like Jack Horner, in the corner
Don't go no where, what do I care
Your kisses are worth waiting for
Be-lieve me
I don't stay out late, don't care to go
I'm home about eight, just me and my radio
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for you

Time: 4/4

No one to talk with, all by myself,
No one to walk with, but I'm happy on the shelf.
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for
you.
I know for certain, the one I love
I'm through with flirtin' it's just you I'm thinkin' of
Ain't misbehavin, I'm saving my love for
you.
Like Jack Horner, in the corner
Don't go no-where, what do I care
Your kisses are worth waiting
for, be - lieve me
I don't stay out late, don't care to go
I'm home about eight, just me and my ra - di-o
Ain't misbehavin', I'm savin' my love for
Eb C7 F7 Bb7 <- 1st time through
you.
Repeat from beginning.
Eb Bb7 Eb <- 2nd time through
you.
Chords and substitutions:
Eb: x 6 5 3 4 3
Cm7: x 3 5 3 4 3 or x x 1 3 1 3
Fm7: 1 3 1 1 4 1
Bb9 x 1 0 1 1 1 or x 3 3 3 3 4
G7+5 x x 1 0 0 1 (1) G7+5 sounds awkward in a solo. I substitute G7.
It's not technically correct. I'm not a purist.

Edim x x 2 3 2 3
F7 1 3 1 2 1 1 (2) This should be a 9th, but the voice holds the 9th.
Play F7 for accompaniment or solo.
Bb7 x 1 3 1 3 1 (3) This is not in the original. But in a solo it
resolves better than the F7.
Cm x 3 5 3 4 3
C7 8 10 8 9 8 8 or x 3 5 3 5 3
