_ _ _ _ I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep All black from head to foot
From climbing in [Gb] them chimneys [Ebm] And cleaning [Bb] out that soot
_ _ With a [Fm] broom and ladder [Bb] impaled The darkened walls I scaled
And far and high [B] I see a [Bbm] patch of _ [Ebm] sky
I'd rather be the [Abm] gypsy [Ebm] Who's camped at the edge of [Abm] town
[Ebm] The one who has the dancing bear That follows [Bb] him around
_ _ And he lifts his big foot up He [Gb] puts his big foot down
And [Abm] bows and [Gb] twirls And [Bb] dances [Ebm] round and round
_ I _ found I was [Abm] a cabin boy [Ebm] Last night [F] as I [Ebm] did dream
Bound upon a magic [Gb] ship [Ebm] For a land I'd [Bb] never _ seen
And the moon she filled our sails And the stars they steered our course
And on [B] our [Bb] bow there [G] was [Bbm] a golden _ [Abm] [Ebm] horse
_ [Abm] The queen eats fruit and [Ebm] candy The bishop nuts and cheese
And when I [Gb] am a grown man [Ebm] I'll taste just what [Bb] I please
_ _ The honey from [Ebm] the bee [Bb] The shellfish from the sea
[Bb]
The earth, the wind, [Ebm] the girls Someone to share [Abm] these things [Ebm] with me
_ _ I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep I'd [Bb] rather be [Eb] _ [E] a chimney sweep
From [Ebm]
