...SWIMMIN' WITH THE WIMMIN'... by George Formby -------------------------------................. *N.B...Ukulele CHORD DIAGRAMS follow the Guitar Tab* *CAPO 3rd FRET* (Original Key: Bb) Intro: A7 D7 G7, C F C Verse 1:

Now ^Cevery year about July, when summer ^A7time ^Gdimcomes ^G7round, There's ^G7lots and lots of people at the ^Cseaside to be found. ^A7 Some play golf or tennis; others ^Dmlike to take a rest, But ^D7here's the kind of exercise, that I en-^D7b5joy the ^G7best;

Chorus 1:

When I go ^Cswimin' with the ^D7wimmin', eee, I ^G7do have a ^Gdimreal ^G7good ^Ctime.^C7 ^F Bobbing up and ^Cdimdown in the ^Cwater; it comes ^D7just below my Mason Dixon ^G7line.

To ^Csee the ladies ^C7do their ex-^Cauger -^Fcises, You ^D7wouldn't think that half of them were ^E7slimming. And when the ^A7girls stand up to sneeze, you can ^D7see their housemaids knees. If you go ^G7swimmin' with the ^Cwimmin'.^F ^C

Verse 2:

Now ^Ceven when I am at home and working ^A7day ^Gdimto ^G7day, I ^G7always do look forward to my ^Chalf day holiday. The ^A7people don't invite me out, they ^Dmknow my half day's fixed, I ^D7go out to the baths that day, because the ^D7b5bathing's ^G7mixed.

Chorus 2:

And I go ^Cswimin' with the ^D7wimmin', and I ^G7do have a ^Gdimreal ^G7good ^Ctime.^C7 I go ^Fbobbing up and ^Cdimdown in the ^Cwater, With a ^D7pretty girl, whose name is Adeline.

You ^Cought to see her ^C7latest bath-^Cauging ^Fcostume; It's ^D7nothing but a little bit of ^E7trimming. And what I ^A7took to be her face, turned out to ^D7be a different place, When I went ^G7swimmin' with the ^Cwimmin'.^F ^C

Interlude: C D7, G7 Gdim G7, C C7, F Cdim C, D7 Chorus 3:

One ^Cday I went in with ^C7some of my ^Caugre -^Flations, And ^D7someone went and pushed my Uncle ^E7Jim in. He came up ^A7gasping for his breath and shouted; And shouted; &^D7quot;what a lovely death, To die while ^G7swimmin', with the ^Cwimmin!' ^F ^C

Chorus 4:

Once I went ^Cswimmin' with the ^D7wimmin' and I ^G7did feel a ^Gdimbig ^G7soft ^Cthing.^C7 A ^Fwoman went and ^Cdimfainted in the ^Cwater, And ^D7where she disappeared it left a ^G7ring.

So I ^Cjumped in with ^C7nearly all ^Caugmy ^Fclothes on, And ^D7swam until my eyesight started ^E7dimming. And after ^A7fighting for my life, I found I'd ^D7gone and saved the wife; So I've chucked ^G7swimmin' with the ^Cwimmin'! ^F ^C
