Any minute the 5 o'clock crowd will be coming, taps'll be flowing with beer
G D Em C G D G
The cigarette smoke is soon to be risin' and at 5:30 Clancy gets here
C D G C
She knows all their faces, she's practically raised them and that's why they're loyal and true
G D Em C D G
They'll pay their tabs and that pays the light bill and she keeps their glass full of brew

[Chorus]
Bm C
And the welders and the drivers and the old nine to fivers
G C
And the regular Joe's of the world
G D Em C
Are singing here's to you Clancy and your neighborhood tavern
G D G
Pour me another my girl

[Verse]
G D Em C G D C
There's a waitress named Lily shows up at 7, to make sure their service is great
G D Em C G D G
And there's a black dude named Elmo that cooks in the kitchen, burgers & chicken fried steak
C D G C
Yeah round 9 o'clock the band will start playing, and the music will fill up the air
G D Em C D G
Then they'll take a break every 45 minutes, and the jukebox takes over from there

[Chorus]
[Verse]
C D G C
It's 1:35 last call's upon us, it's time to settle the score
G D Em C D G
Won't you call me a cab and bring me a tab, and while you're at it bring me one more
C D G C
She's cleaned the last table and shined up the bar, it's late & everyone's gone
G D Em C D G
Then she'll c-o-c-k her pistol and count all her money, then drive that old Chrysler back home

[Chorus]
[Outro]
G D Em C D G
Yeah, good night sweet Clancy in your neighborhood tavern, we'll see you tomorrow my girl
