Sweeney Todd Not While I'm Around-Lyrics chords
Start Jamming...
Seems like the good Lord sent you for me.
Not quite the same way.
Listen to me, please.
[Eb]
You know there's nothing I wouldn't do for you.
Say, if there was someone around, someone bad, only you didn't know him.
What is this?
What are you talking about?
Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around.
Nothing's gonna harm you, no sir, not while I'm around.
[Ab]
Demons are prowling [Bb] everywhere [Gm]
nowadays.
[D] [C] [E] [Bb] I'll send them howling, [F] I don't [Dm] care, [Fm] I got ways.
[Bb]
[Ab] [D] [C] [Eb]
No one's [Bb] gonna hurt [Gm] you, [Cm] [Ab] no one's gonna [B] dare.
[Bb]
Others can desert you, not to [Bbm] worry, we still all be [A] there.
[Ab]
Demons'll charm [Bb] you with a smile [Gm] for a while,
[Cm] but [B] in time, [Bb] they'll harm you, not while I'm around.
[Eb]
[Ebm]
[Eb]
[E]
Not to worry, not to worry, I may not be smart, but I ain't dumb.
I can do it, put me to it, show me something I can overcome.
[Ab] Not [Bb] to [Db] worry, not to worry, I'm not [Gb]
dumb.
Being close and being clever ain't like being true.
I don't need to, I will never hide a thing from you
[Db] like [Eb] some
Now, turpity, I hope we had enough of this foolish chatter.
How about I [Ebm] give you a nice [Eb] shiny new pen?
You can't pass it to us.
That's in your parellis purse.
No it's not, it's something Mr T gave me for my birthday.
That proves it, we gotta go mum, [Ebm] we gotta find the beadle and get the law here.
Shush, don't you know [Eb] how you're not doing it anyway?
You just sit here, nice and quiet, next to me, that's [C] right.
Nothing's gonna harm you, not while I'm around.
Nothing's gonna harm you darling, not while I'm around.
[F] Demons will charm [G] you with a [Em] smile for a while,
[Am] But in [Ab] time, [Bb] [G]
nothing's gonna harm you, [F]
not while I'm
[C]
[G] around.
[C]
