Intro
(G)  (C)  (G) D7 (G)

(G)This old smoke filled bar is something I'm not (C)used to,
But I gave (G)up my home to see you (D)satisfied.(D7)
And I just (G)called to let you know where I'll be (C)living.
It's not (G)much, but I feel (D7)welcome here (G)inside.

(G)And I've got swinging doors, a jukebox and a (C)bar stool.
And my new (G)home has a flashing neon (D)sign.(D7)
(G)Stop by and see me anytime (C)you want to.
Cause I'm (G)always here at (D7)home till closing (G)time.

(G)  (C)  (G) D7 (G)

(G)I've got everything I need to drive me (C)crazy.
And I've got (G)everything it takes to lose my (D)mind.(D7)
And in (G)here the atmosphere's just right for (C)heartaches.
And thanks to (G)you I'm always (D7)here till closing (G)time.

(G)And I've got swinging doors, a jukebox and a (C)bar stool.
And my new (G)home has a flashing neon (D)sign.(D7)
(G)Stop by and see me anytime (C)you want to.
Cause I'm (G)always here at (D7)home till closing (G)time.

(G)I'm always here at (D7)home till closing (G)time.

The Nashville standard key for Swingin' Doors is G. Good job.

In my humble opinion -Keys were ment to be changed. The only reason an artist does a song in a specfic key is becauce -they can and think that's where they sound good.
Or, in some cases editors put them in specific keys becauce its good for the piano player. Notice on the front of the music book it ususally says: piano, vocal,& guitar Guitar is last for a reason. We really arranged this for piano and vocal but because it has chords I guess you can also play it on Guitar. So I guess the bottom line is feel free to change the key to any damn key you want to.

I think it sounds great if tuned halfstep down. if I where tuned in standard, I would play E,A,B7
