[Intro 1]

[C][C][G][G]

[Verse 1]
Ah, we're [C]drinking and we're dancing
And the band is really happening
And the [Am]Johnny Walker wisdom running high
And my [Em]very sweet companion
She's the angel of compassion
She's [Am]rubbing half the world against her thigh
And every [F]drinker, every dancer
Lifts a happy face to thank her
The [C]fiddler fiddles [E]something so sub[Am]lime
All the [G]women tear their blouses off
And the men, they dance on the polka-dots
And it's [F]partner found, it's partner lost
And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops

[Chorus 1]
It's [C]closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing...)
Yeah, the [F]women tear their blouses off
And the men they dance on the polka-dots
And it's [C]partner found, and it's [E]partner lost
And it's [Am]hell to pay when the [F]fiddler stops
It's [C]closing [G]time

[Verse 2]
Ah, we're [C]lonely, we're romantic
And the cider's laced with acid
And the [Am]Holy Spirit's crying, where's the beef?
And the [Em]moon is swimming naked
And the summer night is fragrant
With a [Am]mighty expectation of relief
So we [F]struggle and we stagger
Down the snakes and up the ladder
To the [C]tower where the [E]blessed hours [Am]chime
And I [G]swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
The [F]gates of love they budged an inch
I can't say much has happened since

[Chorus 2]
But [C]closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
I [F]swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
The [C]gates of love they [E]budged an inch
I [Am]can't say much has [F]happened since
(Can't say much has happened since,
can't say much has happened since)
But [C]closing time, [G]closing time

[Bridge 1]
I [Am]loved you for your beauty
But that doesn't make a fool of me
[Em]You were in it for your beauty too
And I [Am]loved you for your body
There's a voice that sounds like god to me
De[D]claring (declaring), declaring (declaring)
De[G]claring that your body's really you
And I [F]loved you when our love was blessed
And I love you now there's nothing left
But [C]sorrow and a [E]sense of over[Am]time
And I [G]missed you since the place got wrecked
And I just don't care what happens next
[F]Looks like freedom but it feels like death
It's something in between, I guess

[Chorus 3]
It's [C]closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
Yeah, I [F]missed you
since our place got wrecked
By the winds of change and the weeds of sex
[C]Looks like freedom but it [E]feels like death
It's [Am]something in be[F]tween I guess
It's [C]closing [G]time

[Verse 3]
Yeah we're [C]drinking and we're dancing
But there's nothing really happening
And the [Am]place is dead as Heaven
on a saturday night
And my [Em]very close companion
Gets me fumbling, gets me laughing
She's a [Am]hundred
but she's wearing something tight
And I [F]lift my glass to the awful truth
Which you can't reveal to the ears of youth
Ex[C]cept to say it [E]isn't worth a [Am]dime
And the [G]whole damn place goes crazy twice
And it's once for the devil and once for Christ
But the [F]boss don't like these dizzy heights
We're busted in the blinding lights

[Chorus 4]
Of [C]closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
The [F]whole damn place goes crazy twice
And it's once for the devil and once for Christ
But the [C]boss don't like these [E]dizzy heights
We're [Am]busted in the [F]blinding lights
(Busted in the blinding light)
Busted in the blinding lights
Of [C]closing time, [G]closing time

[Outro 1]
Oh, the [C]women tear their blouses off
And the men, they dance on the polka-dots
It's [G]closing time
And it's [C]partner found, it's partner lost
And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
It's [G]closing time
I [C]swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
It's [G]closing time
The [C]gates of love they budged an inch
I can't say much has happened since
But [G]closing time
I [C]loved you when our love was blessed
I love you now there's nothing left
But [G]closing time
[Fade out]
