Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Am
Chim chim cher-ee!
GGBA sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be
Em
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Am
Chim chim cher-oo!
GGBEm
Good luck will rub off when I shakes 'ands with you
EmAm
Now, as the ladder of life 'as been strung
GGB
You might think a sweep's on the bottommost rung
EmAm
Though I spends me time in the ashes and smoke
GGBEm
In this 'ole wide world there's no 'appier bloke
Em
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Am
Chim chim cher-ee!
GGBA sweep is as lucky, as lucky can be
Em
Chim chim-in-ey, chim chim-in-ey
Am
Chim chim cher-oo!
GGBEm
Good luck will rub off when I shakes 'ands with you
GEmBEm
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
EmAmGGBEmAmGGBEmAm
I choose me bristles with pride, yes, I do
GGBA broom for the shaft and a brush for the flue
EmAm
Up where the smoke is all billered and curled
GGBEm
'Tween pavement and stars is the chimney sweep world
EmAm
When there's 'ardly no day nor 'ardly no night
GGB
There's things 'alf in shadow and 'alfway in light
GEmBEm
On the rooftops of London oh, what a sight!

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

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

Chim chim cher-oo!
