Verse 1
A
D
So we're drinkin'
and we're dancin'
Bm
D
And the band is really happenin'
Bm
And the Johnny Walker
wisdom's runnin' high
D
A
And my very close companion
she's the angel of compassion
Bm
she's rubbing half the world
A
D
against her thigh
G
every drinker every dancer
D
lets a happy face to thank her
as the fiddler fiddles
A
G
something so sublime
A
D
A
all the women tear their blouses off
D
and the men they dance on the polka dots
D
G
and partner lost hell to pay
A
D
A
stops at closing time
D
Bm
Ah, we're lonely, we're romantic
D
an d the cider's laced with acid
Bm
and the holy spirit's crying,
where's the beef?
D
A
And the moon is swimming naked
and the summer night is fragrant
D
Bm
D
with a mighty expectation of relief
Bm
G
So we stumble and we stagger down the snakes,
up the ladders
D
G
To the tower where the blessed hours chime
A
I swear it happened just like this
Sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
G
The gates of love, they budged an inch
A
Can't say much has happened since,
D
A
D
A
D
A
but closing time
Bm
Oh, I loved you for your beauty,
D
that does not make a fool of me,
A
you were in it for your beauty too.
D
Bm
And I loved you for your body,
D
it's a voice that sounds like God to me,
E
A
E
declaring, declaring,
A
your body's really, really, really you.
G
I love you since our love was blessed,
love you now
D
there's nothing left but sorrow
G
and a sense of overtime.
D
A
I love you since the place was wrecked
by the winds of change
D
A
but it feels like death,
A
D
A
D
Closing time, closing time
A
D
So we're drinkin' and we're dancin'
But there's nothin' really happenin'
Bm
And the place is dead as heaven
on Saturday night
D
A
And my very close companion
D
A
She gets me fumbling,
gets me laughing
D
G
D
She's a hundred but she's
A
D
wearing something tight
G
I lift my glass to the awful truth
That you can't reveal to
the ears of youth
D
G
Except to say that it isn't worth a dime
A
And the whole damn place goes crazy
twice
D
A
Once for the devil and once for Christ
these dizzy heights
We're busted in the blindin' lights
D
A
Of closing time, closing time
G
Yeah, the whole damn place
goes crazy twice
Once for the devil
The boss don't like
D
We're busted in the blindin' lights
G
D
A
Of closing time, of closing time
