Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey

Verse:
Am                    Dm
Now, as the ladder of life 'as been strung
    F             C              E
You might think a sweep's on the bottommost rung
       Am                      Dm
Though I spends me time in the ashes and smoke
   F              C                 E      Am
In this 'ole wide world there's no 'appier bloke

Chorus:
Am
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Dm
Chim chim cher-ee!
  F           C         E
a sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be
Am
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Dm
Chim chim cher-oo!
     F             C          E                 Am
Good luck will rub off when I shakes 'ands with you
   F         Am       E            Am
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too

Verse:
Am                        Dm
I choose me bristles with pride, yes, I do
  F             C           E
A broom for the shaft and a brush for the flue
Am                        Dm
Up where the smoke is all billered and curled
       F            C            E             Am
'Tween pavement and stars is the chimney sweep world
Am                              Dm
When there's 'ardly no day nor 'ardly no night
        F              C           E
There's things 'alf in shadow and 'alfway in light
F                  Am     E          Am
On the rooftops of London oh, what a sight!
