ntroduction:
[G] /[D] /[G] [D]
[G]
Ah, we're drinking and we're dancing
and the band is really happening
[Em]
and the Johnny Walker wisdom running high,
[Bm]
And my very sweet companion,
she's the Angel of Compassion
[Em]
and she's rubbing half the world against her thigh.
[C]
And every drinker, every dancer
lifts a happy face to thank her
[G] [B7] [Em]
and the fiddler fiddles something so sublime
[D]
all the women tear their blouses off
the men they dance on the polka dots
[C]
and it's partner found and it's partner lost
and it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
[G]
it's CLOSING TIME
[C]
Yeah, the women tear their blouses off
the men they dance on the polka dots
[G] [B7]
and it's partner found and it's partner lost
[Em] [C]
and it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
[G] [D]
it's CLOSING TIME
[G]
We're lonely, we're romantic
and the cider's laced with acid
[Em]
and the Holy Spirit's crying, "Where's the beef?"
[Bm]
And the moon is swimming naked
and the summer night is fragrant
[Em]
with a mighty expectation of relief
[C]
So we struggle and we stagger
down the snakes and up the ladder
[G] [B7] [Em]
to the tower where the blessed hours chime
[D]
and I swear it happened just like this:
a sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
[C]
the Gates of Love they budged an inch
I can't say much has happened since
[G]
but CLOSING TIME
[C]
I swear it happned just like this:
a sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
[G] [B7]
the Gates of Love they budged an inch
[Em] [C]
I can't say much has happened since
(can't say much has happned since, can't say much has happened since)
[G] [D]
but CLOSING TIME, CLOSING TIME
[Em]
I loved you for your beauty
but that doesn't make a fool of me
[Bm]
you were in it for your beauty too
[Em]
and I loved you for your body
there's a voice that sounds like God to me
[A] [A7]
declaring (declaring) declaring (declaring)
[D]
declaring that you're body's really you (really really really really)
[C]
I loved you when our love was blessed
I love you now there's nothing left
[G] [B7] [Em]
but sorrow and a sense of overtime
[D]
and I miss you since the place got wrecked
but I just don't care what happens next
[C]
looks like freedom but it feels like death
it's something in between, I guess
[G]
it's CLOSING TIME
[C]
Yeah. I miss you since the place got wrecked
by the winds of change and the weeds of sex
[G] [B7]
looks like freedom but it feels like death
[Em] [C]
it's something in between, I guess
[G] [D]
it's CLOSING TIME
[G]
Yeah, we're drinking and we're dancing
but there's nothing really happening
[Em]
The place is dead as Heaven on a Saturday night
[Bm]
And my very close companion
gets me fumbing gets me laughing
[Em]
she's a hundred but she's wearing something tight
[C]
And I lift my glass to the Awful Truth
which you can't reveal to the Ears of Youth
[G] [B7] [Em]
except to say it isn't worth a dime
[D]
And the whole damn place goes crazy twice
and it's once for the Devil and it's once for Christ
[C]
but the Boss don't like these dizzy heights
we're busted in the blinding lights
[G]
of CLOSING TIME
[C]
The whole damn place goes crazy twice
and it's once for the Devil and it's once for Christ
[G] [B7]
but the Boss don't like these dizzy heights
[Em] [C]
we're busted in the blinding lights
(busted in the blinding lights)
busted in the blinding lights
[G] [D]
of CLOSING TIME, CLOSING TIME
[G]
Oh, the women tear their blouses off
[D]
and the men they dance on the polka dots, it's CLOSING TIME
[G]
And it's partner found, and it's partner lost
and it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
[D]
it's CLOSING TIME
[G]
I swear it happned just like this:
[D]
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss, it's CLOSING TIME
[G]
The gates of love they budged an inch
[D]
I can't say much has happned since but CLOSING TIME
[G]
I loved you when our love was blessed
[D]
I love you now, there's nothing left but CLOSING TIME
[G]
And I missed you since our place gor wrecked
[D]
by the winds of change and the weeds of sex, it's CLOSING TIME
