Cappo on Third Fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse]
C                                                            G
Oh, the smell of the bakery from across the street got in my nose
C                                                                     G
As we carried our ladders down the street with the wrought-iron gate rows
C                                                        G
I went home and listened to Jimmie Rodgers in my lunch-break
D                                                                          G
Bought five Woodbines at the shop on the corner and went straight back to work
[Verse]
     C                                                 G
Oh, Sam was up on top And I was on the bottom with the V
C                                                              G
We went for lemonade and Paris buns at the shop and broke for tea
C                                                       G
I collected from the lady and I cleaned the fanlight inside-out
D                                                     G
I was blowing saxophone on the weekend in that down joint
[Chorus]
G       D        Em
What's  my     line?
      D              C
I'm happy cleaning windows
G       D        Em
Take     my      time
      D              C
I'll see you when my love grows
G           D        Em
Baby don't let it slide
        D                  C
I'm a working man in my prime
           G
Cleaning windows (number hundred and thirty-six)
[Verse]
C                                                            G
I heard Leadbelly and Blind Lemon on the street where I was born
C                                                                     G
Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee, and Muddy Waters singin' I'm A Rolling Stone
C                                                     G
I went home and read my Christmas Humphreys' book on Zen
D                                                           G
Curiosity Killed The Cat, Kerouac's Dharma Bums and On The Road
[Chorus]
G       D        Em
What's  my     line?
      D              C
I'm happy cleaning windows
G       D        Em
Take     my      time
      D              C
I'll see you when my love grows
G           D        Em
Baby don't let it slide
        D                  C
I'm a working man in my prime
           G
Cleaning windows
I'll say it again...
(and then he continues to 'say it again')...
