This song is just a lot of fun to sing. I have no idea if this is the key that Gordon Lightfoot recorded it in
but it works for me. Enjoy.


HANGDOG HOTEL ROOM?Gordon Lightfoot

VERSE 1.
C majorC          D MajorD
I go in for singin?, I do it for my pay
    FF         C majorC
But the kind of gig I can really dig
    G+G
Happens at the break of day
    C majorC          Bb majorBb
With a few good friends and neighbours
   FF           C majorC
Into playin? the night-time tunes
  FF           C majorC
So pass the jar and that old guitar
    G+G        C majorC
In this hangdog hotel room.
VERSE 2.
C majorC            D MajorD
I believe in magic, a little monkey-shines,
    FF          C majorC
But the kind of row I can really hoe
  G+G
Is playin? in tune on time,
   C majorC      Bb majorBb         FF       C majorC
With rhythms all around us we?re like weavers at the loom,

  FF           C majorC
So pass the jar and that old guitar
    G+G       C majorC
In this hangdog hotel room.

CHORUS 1.
C majorC     Bb majorBb        FF         C majorC
Oh Lord it feels so good to play a night-time tune
  FF           C majorC
So pass the jar and that old guitar
    G+G       C majorC
In this hangdog hotel room.

VERSE 3.
C majorC              D MajorD
When it comes to morning and going out at night,
     FF         C majorC
Well the kind of test that I like best
  G+G
Is treating the wrong girl right.
   C majorC          Bb majorBb
And a few good friends and neighbours
   FF           C majorC
Into playin? the night-time tunes
  FF           C majorC
So pass the jar and that old guitar
    G+G       C majorC
In this hangdog hotel room.

CHORUS 2
C majorC     Bb majorBb        FF         C majorC
Oh Lord it feels so good to play a night-time tune
  FF           C majorC
So pass the jar and that old guitar
    G+G       C majorC
In this hangdog hotel room.
   C majorC      Bb majorBb          FF       C majorC
With rhythms all around us we?re like weavers at the loom,

  FF           C majorC
So pass the jar and that old guitar
    G+G       C majorC
In this hangdog hotel room.

  FF           C majorC
So pass the jar and that old guitar
    G+G      C majorC
In this hangdog ---- hotel room.
