CLOSING TIME - LYLE LOVETT
G - D - Em / C - D C - D - G - Em - C - D - G
The night she is a true companion
they shuffle in, they hear the song.
But by night's end it's night's abandon.
You look across the floor, ain't anyone along.
Closing time; Unplug them people, and send them home, it's closing time.
Now Kenny's been mixing sound all evening.
Sometimes I think that boy, He ain't got no ears.
And Cathy's laughing and Cathy's always laughing.
Well, keep on laughing Cathy, just make it out of here.
Closing time; Unplug them people, and send them home, it's closing time.
Closing time; Unplug them people, and send them home, it's closing time.
(Musical Interlude)
So stack those chairs up on those tables
and stack those empties up on that bar,
and count your money, Lord, and count my money,
and hear those bottles ring, you know where you are.
Closing time; Unplug them people, and send them home, it's closing time.
Closing time; Unplug them people, and send them home, it's closing time.
C D G Em
The night's all that's left behind. You take your part and I'll take mine.
C D C-G
And go on home, it's closing time.
