There is a castle on a cloud
-7 -8 8 -8 -7 7 -6 6
I like to go there in my sleep
-5 6 -6 6 -7 -8 8 -7
Aren’t any floors for me to sweep
-5 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 -3
Not in my castle on a cloud
-7 -8 8 -8 -7 -7 <7 -7
There is a room that’s full of toys
-7 -8 8 -8 -7 7 -6 6
There are a hundred boys and girls
-5 6 -6 6 -7 -8 8 -7
Nobody shouts or talks too loud
-5 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 -3
Not in my castle on a cloud
-6 6 -5 5 -5 6 -6 6 5
There is a lady all in white
-7 7 -6 6 -6 7 -7 7
Holds me and sings a lullaby
7 <-7 -7 7 -6 7 -7 -6 5
She’s nice to see and she’s soft to touch
-5 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6
She says, “Cosette, I love you very much”
-7 -8 8 -8 -7 -7 <7 -7
I know a place where no one’s lost
-7 -8 8 -8 -7 7 -6 6
I know a place where no one cries
-5 6 -6 6 -7 -8 8 -7
Crying at all is not allowed
-5 6 -6 6 -5 5 -4 -3
Not in my castle on a cloud
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7
Oh, help, I think I hear them now
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7
And I’m nowhere near finished sweeping and scrubbing and
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7
polishing the floor
-7 -7 6 6 6 -7
Oh, it’s her—it’s Madame
6 <-7 6 -7 6 <-7 6 -7 6 <-7 -7
Now look who’s here, the little Madame herself
6 <-7 -7 7 -6 6 -5 <4 <-3 -3 4 7 <-6
Pretending once again she’s been so awfully good
-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5
Better not let me catch you slacking
-5 -5 -5 -5 -6 <7
Better not catch my eye
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6
Ten rotten francs your mother sends me
-6 -6 -6 -6 <7 -8
What is that gonna buy?
-6 -8 -6 <-7 -6 -8 -6 <-7 -6 -8 <-7
Now take that pail, my little Mademoiselle
-6 -8 <-7 <7 <-6 -6 <-5 -5 -4 <-3
And go and draw some water from the well
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 <-6 <-6 <-6 <-6 <-6
We should never have taken you in in the first place
<-6 <-6 <-6 <-6 <-6 <-6 <-6 7
How stupid the things that we do
7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 <7
Like mother like daughter, the scum of the street
<8 <8 <8 <-8 <-8 <-8 -7 -7 -7 <7 <7 <7 -7
Eponine, come my dear, Eponine, let me see you
-7 -7 <7 <7 <7 6 6 6 <-5 <5 <5
You look very well in that little blue hat
-9 -9 -9 -9 -9 <8 <8 <8 <-7 <-7 <-7
There’s some little girls who know how to behave
-7 -7 -7 <-7 <-7 <-7 -7 -7 -7 -6
And they know what to wear and I’m saying
-6 6 -5 -5 -5
Thank heaven for that
<-6 8 <-6 -8 <-6 8 <-6 -8 <-6 8 -8
Still there, Cosette? Your tears will do you no good
<-6 8 -8 -7 7 <-6 6 <-5 5 -4 -4 -3 <3
I told you fetch some water from the well in the wood
-7 -8 8 -8 -7 -7 <7 -7
Please do not send me out alone
-7 -8 8 -8 -7 7 -6 6
Not in the darkness on my own
6 <-7 6 -7 6 <-7 6 -7 6 <-7 -7
Enough of that, or I’ll forget to be nice
6 <-7 -7 7 -6 6 -5 <4 <-3 -3 4 7 <-6
You heard me ask for something and I never ask twice
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
