Verse 1
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
She's rubbing half the world against her thigh
C
And every drinker, every dancer
Lifts a happy face to thank her
G
B
Em
The fiddler fiddles something so sublime
D
All the women tear their blouses off
And the men, they dance on the polka-dots
C
And it's partner found, it's partner lost
And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
Chorus 1
(Closing time, closing time, closing...)
C
Yeah, the women tear their blouses off
And the men they dance on the polka-dots
G
B
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
Verse 2
G
Ah, 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
B
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
Chorus 2
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
C
I swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
G
B
The gates of love they budged an inch
Em
C
I can't say much has happened since
(Can't say much has happened since,
can't say much has happened since)
G
D
But closing time, closing time
Bridge 1
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
Declaring (declaring), declaring (declaring)
D
Declaring that your body's really you
C
And I loved you when our love was blessed
And I love you now there's nothing left
G
B
Em
But sorrow and a sense of overtime
D
And I missed you since the place got wrecked
And I just don't care what happens next
C
Looks like freedom but it feels like death
It's something in between, I guess
Chorus 3
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
since our place got wrecked
By the winds of change and the weeds of sex
G
B
Looks like freedom but it feels like death
Em
C
It's something in between I guess
G
D
It's closing time
Verse 3
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
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
B
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 once for Christ
C
But the boss don't like these dizzy heights
We're busted in the blinding lights
Chorus 4
(Closing time, closing time, closing time)
C
The whole damn place goes crazy twice
And it's once for the devil and once for Christ
G
B
But the boss don't like these dizzy heights
Em
C
We're busted in the blinding lights
(Busted in the blinding light)
Busted in the blinding lights
G
D
Of closing time, closing time
Outro 1
G
Oh, the women tear their blouses off
And the men, they dance on the polka-dots
G
And it's partner found, it's partner lost
And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
G
I swear it happened just like this
A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
G
The gates of love they budged an inch
I can't say much has happened since
G
I loved you when our love was blessed
I love you now there's nothing left
