Abm

I am a chimbley

A chimbley sweep

No bed to lie

On the rooftop

You hear me cry

I'll shake you from your sleep

For I am a poor and a wretched boy

Abm Eb Abm

A chimbley, chimbley sweep

Verse 2:

I am an orphan

An orphan boy

I know no love

I see no mother joy

A dirty doorstep

My cradle lay

My fortune made

Pre-Chorus:

I'll shake you from your sleep

Hear me weep

Your day will come in peace

Chorus:

For I am a poor and a wretched boy

A chimbley, chimbley sweep

Verse 3:

A lonely urchin

The widow cried

I've not been spoiled

Since the day my husband died

Her cheeks are blushing

Her legs lay bare

And shipwrecked there

Pre-Chorus:

I'll shake you from your sleep

Hear me weep

Your day will come indeed

Chorus 2x:

For I am a poor and a wretched boy

A chimbley, chimbley sweep
