Текст песни Van Morrison — Cleaning Windows + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
Cappo on Third Fret
Lead in: G with occasional index finger hammerons
C (add pinky on third fret of high E string)
Oh, the smell of the bakery from across the street
G
Got in my nose
C
As we carried our ladders down the street
G
With the wrought-iron gate rows
C
I went home and listened to Jimmie Rodgers
G
in my lunch-break
C
Bought five Woodbines at the shop on the corner
G
And went straight back to work.
C
Oh, Sam was up on top
G
And I was on the bottom with the v
C
We went for lemonade and Paris buns
G
At the shop and broke for tea
C
I collected from the lady
G
And I cleaned the fanlight inside-out
C
I was blowing saxophone on the weekend
G
In that down joint.
G D/F# EM
What's my line?
D C
I'm happy cleaning windows
G D/F# EM
Take my time
D C
I'll see you when my love grows
G D/F# EM
Baby don't let it slide
D C
I'm a working man in my prime
G
Cleaning windows (number a hundred and thirty-six)
[Second Verse]
I heard Leadbelly and Blind Lemon
On the street where I was born
Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee,
Muddy Waters singin' I'm A Rolling Stone
I went home and read my Christmas Humphreys' book on Zen
Curiosity killed the cat
Kerouac's Dharma Bums and On The Road
[Second Chorus]
What's my line?
I'm happy cleaning windows
Take my time
I'll see you when my love grows
Baby don't let it slide
I'm a working man in my prime
Cleaning windows
