Chords with lyrics

C majorC    G+G

C majorC         G+G
Sadie the cleaning lady
   G+G                 C majorC
With trusty scrubbing brush and pail of water
      FF              C majorC        A7A7
Worked her fingers to the bone for the life she had at home
  D7D7               G7G7
Providing at the same time for her daughter

  C majorC         G+G
Ah Sadie the cleaning lady
  G+G               C majorC
Her aching knee's not getting any younger
     FF              C majorC         A7A7
Well her red detergent hands have for years not held a mans
  D7D7                  G7G7
And time would find her hard in spite of hunger

      C majorC                Dm7Dm7
Scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
     G7G7                 C majorC
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
     C majorC             Dm7Dm7
Can't afford to get bored, dear old Sadie
     G7G7                 C majorC     G#7G#7
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady

  C#C#         G#G#
Ah, Sadie the cleaning lady
  G#G#               C#C#
Her female mind would find a way of trapping
     F#F#            C#C#      F#7A#7
Though as gentle as a lamb, Sam the elevator man
  D#7D#7               G#7G#7
So she could spend the night by TV napping

Violin Solo:
C#C#  D#m7D#m7  G#7G#7  C#C#

  D MajorD  N.C.
Ah, Sadie the cleaning lady

Her aching knee's not getting any younger

Well, her red detergent hands have for years not held a mans

And time would find her hard in spite of hunger

        D MajorD                E minor 7Em7
Ah, scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
     A7A7                 D MajorD
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
     D MajorD             E minor 7Em7
Can't afford to get bored dear old Sadie

Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady

  D#D#         A#A#
Ah, Sadie the cleaning lady
  A#A#                 D#D#
Her Sam was what she got for crying and singing
    G#G#              D#D#        C7C7
To her solo and dismay, she's still working til this day
  F7F7              F#7A#7
Her Sam turned out to be another singer

        D#D#                Fm7Fm7
Ah, scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
     F#7A#7                D#D#
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
    D#D#             Fm7Fm7
Can't afford to get bored dear old Sadie
     F#7A#7                D#D#
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
