Clancy's Tavern
By Toby Keith
Tabbed By Larry Mofle
12/7/2011
C G Am F C G F
Any minute the 5 o'clock crowd will be coming, taps'll be flowing with beer
C G Am F C G C
The cigarette smoke is soon to be risin' and at 5:30 Clancy gets here
F G C F
She knows all their faces, she's practically raised them and that's why they're loyal and true
C G Am F G C
They'll pay their tabs and that pays the light bill and she keeps their glass full of brew
Chorus:
Em F
And the welders and the drivers and the old nine to fivers
C F
And the regular Joe's of the world
C G Am F
Are singing here's to you Clancy and your neighborhood tavern
C G C
Pour me another my girl
There's a waitress named Lily shows up at 7, to make sure their service is great
And there's a black dude named Elmo that cooks in the kitchen, burgers & chicken fried steak
Yeah round 9 o'clock the band will start playing, and the music will fill up the air
Then they'll take a break every 45 minutes, and the jukebox takes over from there
Chorus
Key Change to D (C=D, G=A, Am=Bm, F=G)
It's 1:35 last call's upon us, it's time to settle the score
Won't you call me a cab and bring me a tab, and while you're at it bring me one more
She's cleaned the last table and shined up the bar, it's late & everyone's gone
Then she'll c-o-c-k her pistol and count all her money, then drive that old Chrysler back home
Chorus
Yeah, good night sweet Clancy in your neighborhood tavern, we'll see you tomorrow my girl

Thank-You Larry! I appreciate all the work you put into the song submissions. Now...if I only had a guitar here at work! :) -Kevin | 12/7/2011 | Thanks a ton Larry. You're the best! -WillyJoe | 12/9/2011 | Y'all are welcome!
-lmofle | 12/9/2011 | In the last chorus after the key change, what would you place in place of Em??? -JasonMac78 | 12/17/2011 | Without picking up my guitar and listening to it, it should be F#m. Here's how you transpose chords to different keys:
I first write down all the notes in the key the song is in - in this case it is in C. So I simply write down on a piece of paper this:
C-D-E-F-G-A-B and below it, write the notes for the key you want to change it to (in our case, D) D-E-F-G-A-B-C
With the 2 keys written out, just take the original chords and look below to see what lines up with the new key you want to go to.
C becomes D, F becomes G, G become A, Am becomes Bm...(I hope this makes sense at this point to you).
Now, to answer your question, where is the E(m)? The 3rd position, right - so what is the 3rd position of the key of D> F(m). From experience, I doubt it is actually Fm and is more likely to be F#m. Try that and see if it works... -lmofle | 12/17/2011 | You, sir, are awesome. Thank you for answering my question and the quick lesson....it made a lot of sense. Thanks so much! -JasonMac78 | 12/19/2011 |
