                                        Chim Chim Cher-ee - Turin Brakes

This is a hauntingly beautiful version of this song.
This is the way Olly plays it live (as close as I can
tell)  The chord names may be slightly off.

Enjoy.

Verse 1:

Cm
Winds from the east
                   G
Mist comin' in
      Gm                   Cm         E             A    
Like something's a-brewing, about to begin
Cm                                                G
Can't put my finger on what lies in store
  Gm                Cm             A                 Cm
I feel what's to happen, all happened before

Chorus 1:

Cm                                                                  G
Chim chim-e-ney, chim chim-e-ney, chim chim cher-ee
Gm             Cm        E             A
A sweep is as lucky as lucky can be
Cm                                                                  G
Chim chim-e-ney, chim chim-e-ney, chim chim cher-oo
    Gm               Cm           A                         Cm
Good luck will rub off when I shake hands with you
   G       Cm         A                  Cm
Or blow me a kiss and that's... lucky too

Verse 2:

Now as the ladder of life has been strung
You may think a sweep's on the bottommost rung
Though I spend time in the ashes and smoke
In this whole wide world there's no happier bloke

Chorus 2:

Chim chim-e-ney, chim chim-e-ney, chim chim cher-ee
A sweep is as lucky as lucky can be
Chim chim-e-ney, chim chim-e-ney, chim chim cher-oo
Good luck will rub off when I shake hands with you
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too

Outro:

Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
Or blow me a kiss and that's lucky too
