Artist: The Decemberists Song: The Chimbley Sweep Label: Kill Rock Stars Tabbed by IRONCOOKARU@hotmail.com Standard tuning: EADGBE I A chimbley A chimbley sweep No bed to lie No shoes to hold my feet On the rooftop In dead of night You hear me cry Pre-Chorus: I'll shake you from your sleep Hear me weep Your day will come in peace For I am a poor and a wretched boy chimbley, chimbley sweep 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 For I am a poor and a wretched boy chimbley, chimbley sweep 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 For I am a poor and a wretched boy chimbley, chimbley sweep
