Mister Tanner
Harry Chapin        (klr)

Mister [
G
] Tanner was a [
G
/f] cleaner from a [
Em
] town in the Mid [
G
/d] west And of [
G
] all the cleaning [
G
/f] shops around [
Em
] hed made his the [
D
] best But he [
C
] also was a [
Bb
] baritone who [
Am7
] sang while hanging [
G
] clothes He practiced scales while [
G
/f] pressing tails and [
Em
] sang at local [
D
] shows His [
Em
] friends and neighbors praised the voice that [
D
] poured out from his throat They [
Em
] said that he should use his gift in [
D
] stead of cleaning coats [
G
] But [
Bm
] music was his life, it was [
Am7
] not his livelihood And it [
Em
] made him feel so happy and it [
G
/d] made him feel so [
D
/c] good And he [
G
/b] sang from his heart [
C
] and he [
G
/d] sang from his [
D
] soul He [
G
] did not know how [
C
] well he sang, [
G
] it just [
C
] made him [
G
] whole His [
G
] friends kept working [
G
/f] on him to try [
Em
] music out full [
G
/d] time
A
[
G
] big debut and [
G
/f] rave reviews a [
Em
] great career to [
D
] climb [
C
] Finally they [
Bb
] got to him [
Am7
] he would take the fling [
G
]
A
concert agent [
G
/f] in New York [
Em
] agreed to have him [
D
] sing And there were [
Em
] plane tickets, phone calls, [
D
] money spent to rent the hall It [
Em
] took most of his savings but he [
D
] gladly used them all [
G
] But [
Bm
] music was his life, it was [
Am7
] not his livelihood And it [
Em
] made him feel so happy and it [
G
/d] made him feel so [
D
/c] good And he [
G
/b] sang from his heart [
C
] and he [
G
/d] sang from his [
D
] soul He [
G
] did not know how [
C
] well he sang, [
G
] it just [
C
] made him [
G
] whole The [
G
] evening came he [
G
/f] took the stage his [
Em
] face set in a [
G
/d] smile And in the [
G
] half filled hall the [
G
/f] critics sat [
Em
] watching on the [
D
] aisle But the [
C
] concert was a [
Bb
] blur to him [
Am7
] spatters of applause [
G
] He did not know how [
G
/f] well he sang, he [
Em
] only heard the [
D
] flaws But the [
Em
] critics were concise, it [
D
] only took four lines But [
Em
] no one could accuse them of [
D
] being overkind (spoken) [
G
] Mr Martin Tanner, Baritone, of [
G
/f] Dayton Ohio Made his Town Hall [
Eb
] debut last night. He came well [
G
/d] prepared But unfortunately his presentation [
C
] was not up to contemporary Professional [
Bb
] standards. His voice lacks the [
Abmaj7
] range of tonal color Necessary to make it consistently [
G
] interesting [
C
] Full time consideration of an [
Bb
] other endeavor might be in [
G
] order [
G
/f] - [
Em
] - [
G
/d] - [
G
] - [
G
/f] - [
Em
] - [
G
/d] [
G
] He came back home to [
G
/f] Dayton and was [
Em
] questioned by his friends [
G
] Then he [
G
] smiled and just said [
G
/f] nothing and he [
Em
] never sang [
D
] again [
C
] Excepting very late [
Bb
] at night when the [
Am
] shop was dark and [
G
] closed He sang softly to himself as he sorted through the [
D
] clothes [
G
] - [
Bm
] Music was his life, it was not [
Am7
] his livelihood And it [
Em
] made him feel so happy, it [
G
] made him feel so [
D
] good And he [
G
/b] sang from his [
C
] heart and he [
G
] sang from his [
D
] soul And he [
G
] did not know how [
C
] well he sang [
Bb
] It just [
Abmaj7
] made him [
G
] whole I have a wide variety of popular artist and venues for audio tape trading. Contact me at < [email protected] > and I will e-mail my list to you. Ken Reynolds
