C minorCm G+G+ Cm7Cm7 FF
Chim chiminey, chim chiminey, chim chim cheree!
F minorFm C minorCm D MajorD D7-5 G7G7
A augmentedA sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be.
C minorCm G+G+ Cm7Cm7 FF
Chim chiminey, chim chiminey, chim chim cheroo!
F minorFm C minorCm G7G7 G7G7+ C minorCm
Good luck will rub off when I shake 'ands with you,
F minorFm C minorCm G7G7 C minorCm
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too.
C minorCm G+G+ Cm7Cm7 FF
Now as the ladder of life 'as been strung,
F minorFm C minorCm D MajorD D7-5 G7G7
you may think a sweep's on the bottom most rung.
C minorCm G+G+ Cm7Cm7 FF
Though I spends me time in the ashes and smoke,
F minorFm C minorCm G7G7 G+G+ G7G7 C minorCm
in this 'ole wide world there's no happier bloke.
C minorCm G+G+ Cm7Cm7 FF
Up where the smoke is all billered and curled,
F minorFm C minorCm
'Tween pavement and stars,
D MajorD D7-5 G7G7 G+G+
is the chimney sweep world.
G7G7 C minorCm G+G+ Cm7Cm7 FF
When there's 'ardly no day nor hardly no night,
F minorFm C minorCm G7G7 G+G+ G7G7 C minorCm
there's things'alf in shadow and 'alfway in light,
F minorFm C minorCm G7G7 C minorCm
On the rooftops of London, coo, what a sight!
2. Chim chiminey, chim chiminey, chim chim cheree!
When you're with a sweep you're in glad company.
Nowhere is there a more 'appier crew
Than them what sings "chim chim cheree, chim cheroo!"
Chim chiminey chim chim, cheree chim cheeroo!
I choose me bristles with pride, yes, I do:
A augmentedA broom for the shaft and a brush for the flue.
Tough I'm covered with soot from the 'ead to me toes,
A augmentedA sweep knows 'es welcome wherever he goes.
Up where the smoke is all billered and curled,
'Tween pavement and stars,
is the chimney sweep world.
When there's hardly no day nor hardly no night,
there's things half in shadow and halfway in light,
On the rooftops of London, coo, what a sight!
