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