it's something in between, I guess
         G
it's closing time (closing time, closing time, closing time)
               C
Yeah. I missed you since our place got wrecked

by the winds of change and the weeds of sex
           G                                  B7
and it looks like freedom but it feels like death
         Em                       C
it's something in between, I guess

         G                  D
it's clo-sing time

[Verse]

                      G
Yeah, we're drinking and we're dancing

but there's nothing really happening
             Em
And the place is dead as Heaven on a Saturday night
             Bm
And my very close companion

gets me fumbling 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 (closing time, closing time, 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 clo-sing time, clo-sing time

[Outro]

               G
Oh, the women tear their blouses off
                                                                            D
and the men they dance on the polka dots, it's clo---sing time
                G
And it's partner found, and it's partner lost
                                                                            D
and it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops, it's clo---sing time
            G
And I swear it happened just like this:
                                                     D
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss, it's clo---sing time (closing time, closing time)
          G
The gates of love they budged an inch
                                                             D
I can't say much has happened since but clo---sing time (closing time, closing time)
   G
I loved you when our love was blessed
                                                            D
I love you now, there's nothing left but clo---sing time (closing time, closing time)
           G
And I missed you since our place got wrecked
                                                                                 D
by the winds of change and the weeds of sex, it's clo---sing time ....
