Verse 1
Ab
Ah, we're drinking and we're dancing
And the band is really happening
Fm
And the Johnny Walker wisdom running high
Cm
And my very sweet companion
She's the angel of compassion
Fm
She's rubbing half the world against her thigh
Db
And every drinker, every dancer
Lifts a happy face to thank her
Ab
C
Fm
The fiddler fiddles something so sublime
Eb
All the women tear their blouses off
And the men, they dance on the polka-dots
Db
And it's partner found, it's partner lost
And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
Chorus 1
Ab
It's closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing...)
Db
Yeah, the women tear their blouses off
And the men they dance on the polka-dots
Ab
C
And it's partner found, and it's partner lost
Fm
Db
And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
Ab
Eb
It's closing time
Verse 2
Ab
Ah, we're lonely, we're romantic
And the cider's laced with acid
Fm
And the Holy Spirit's crying, where's the beef?
Cm
And the moon is swimming naked
And the summer night is fragrant
Fm
With a mighty expectation of relief
Db
So we struggle and we stagger
Down the snakes and up the ladder
Ab
C
Fm
To the tower where the blessed hours chime
Eb
And I swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
Db
The gates of love they budged an inch
I can't say much has happened since
Chorus 2
Ab
But closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
Db
I swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
Ab
C
The gates of love they budged an inch
Fm
Db
I can't say much has happened since
(Can't say much has happened since,
can't say much has happened since)
Ab
Eb
But closing time, closing time
Bridge 1
Fm
I loved you for your beauty
But that doesn't make a fool of me
Cm
You were in it for your beauty too
Fm
And I loved you for your body
There's a voice that sounds like god to me
Bb
Declaring (declaring), declaring (declaring)
Eb
Declaring that your body's really you
Db
And I loved you when our love was blessed
And I love you now there's nothing left
Ab
C
Fm
But sorrow and a sense of overtime
Eb
And I missed you since the place got wrecked
And I just don't care what happens next
Db
Looks like freedom but it feels like death
It's something in between, I guess
Chorus 3
Ab
It's closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
Db
Yeah, I missed you
since our place got wrecked
By the winds of change and the weeds of sex
Ab
C
Looks like freedom but it feels like death
Fm
Db
It's something in between I guess
Ab
Eb
It's closing time
Verse 3
Ab
Yeah we're drinking and we're dancing
But there's nothing really happening
Fm
And the place is dead as Heaven
on a saturday night
Cm
And my very close companion
Gets me fumbling, gets me laughing
Fm
She's a hundred
but she's wearing something tight
Db
And I lift my glass to the awful truth
Which you can't reveal to the ears of youth
Ab
C
Fm
Except to say it isn't worth a dime
Eb
And the whole damn place goes crazy twice
And it's once for the devil and once for Christ
Db
But the boss don't like these dizzy heights
We're busted in the blinding lights
Chorus 4
Ab
Of closing time
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
Db
The whole damn place goes crazy twice
And it's once for the devil and once for Christ
Ab
C
But the boss don't like these dizzy heights
Fm
Db
We're busted in the blinding lights
(Busted in the blinding light)
Busted in the blinding lights
Ab
Eb
Of closing time, closing time
Outro 1
Ab
Oh, the women tear their blouses off
And the men, they dance on the polka-dots
Eb
It's closing time
Ab
And it's partner found, it's partner lost
And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
Eb
It's closing time
Ab
I swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
Eb
It's closing time
Ab
The gates of love they budged an inch
I can't say much has happened since
Eb
But closing time
Ab
I loved you when our love was blessed
I love you now there's nothing left
Eb
But closing time
