Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[G][G][G][G]
[G][G]

[Verse 1]
Oh, the [C]smell of the bakery
from across the street, got in my [G]nose
[C]As we carried our ladders down the street
With the wrought iron gate [G]rows
[C]I went home
and listened to Jimmie Rodgers
in my lunch [G]break, [D]bought five Woodbines
at the shop on the corner
And went straight back to [G]work

[Verse 2]
Oh, [C]Sam was up on top
And I was on the bottom with the [G]V
[C]We went for lemonade and Paris buns
At the shop and broke for [G]tea
[C]I collected from the lady
And I cleaned the fanlight [G]inside out
[D]I was blowing saxophone on the weekend
In that down [G]joint
What's [D]my

[Chorus 1]
[Em]line?
I'm [D]happy cleaning [C]windows
[G]Take my [D]tim[Em]e
I'll [D]see you when my [C]love grows
[G]Baby, don't let[D] it sli[Em]de
I'm a [D]working man in my [C]prime
Cleaning [G]windows (number thirty six)

[Solo 1]
[C][C][G][G]
[D][D][G][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]I heard Leadbelly and Blind Lemon
On the street where I was [G]born
[C]Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee,
Muddy Waters singin' "I'm A [G]Rolling Stone"
[C]I went home and read
my Christmas Humphreys' book on [G]Zen
[D]Curiosity killed the cat
Kerouac's "Dharma Bums" and "On The [G]Road"
What's [D]my

[Chorus 2]
[Em]line?
I'm [D]happy cleaning [C]windows
[G]Take my [D]tim[Em]e
I'll [D]see you when my [C]love grows
[G]Baby, don't let[D] it sli[Em]de
I'm a [D]working man in my [C]prime
Cleaning [G]windows, what's [D]my [Em]line?
I'm [D]happy cleaning [C]windows,
[G]Well, I take my [D]tim[Em]e
I'll [D]see you when my [C]love grows
[G]don't let[D] it sli[Em]de
I'm a [D]working man in my [C]prime
Cleaning [G]windows (alright, cleanin')

[Outro 1]
[C](What'd you say number
Number a hundred and twenty six)
[G][C][G]
[Repeat and fade]
