When I'm Cleaning Windows George Formby
Ok this is the song transcribed for guitar. It's not exactly 'cool' but its a good
party song. It works best on an acoustic guitar with a real um-cha kind of chord
pattern like I've tabbed.
NOTE: The dot (.) symbol above the tab means staccato (stop the chord from ringing)!
Pattern 1:
A . . . . . . D . . E . . . . . . . .
e---0---0---0---0---0---0----2---2----0---0---0---0---0---0----0---0- B---2---2---2---2---2---2----3---3----0---0---0---0---0---0----2---2- G---2---2---2---2---2---2----2---2----1---1---1---1---1---1----2---2- D---2---2---2---2---2---2--0-0-0-0----2---2---2---2---2---2----2---2- A-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------2---2---2---2---2---2--0-0-0-0- E-----------------------------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0----------
Ok each stanza uses this pattern like so:
Now [A]I go cleaning windows
To earn an honest [D]bob
[E]For a nosy Parker
It's an interesting j[A]ob
ALL of these verse use this pattern and also the instrumental breaks.
And each refrain uses pattern 2:
F#m . . . . E . . . . D . . . . E . .
e---2---2---2---2----0---0---0---0----2---2---2---2----0---0-0- B---2---2---2---2----0---0---0---0----3---3---3---3----0---0-0- G---2---2---2---2----1---1---1---1----2---2---2---2----1---1-1- D---4---4---4---4----2---2---2---2--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0----2---2-2- A---4---4---4---4----2---2---2---2---------------------2---2-2- E-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------------0-0-0-0-0-
[F#m]In my profession I work hard
[E]But I'll never stop
I'll [D]climb this blinkin' ladder
Till I [E]get right to the top
And that's it!
