Lyrics:
A E F#m
The night she is a true companion
D B
They shuffle in
D E
They hear the sound
A E
But by night's end
F#m
It's night's abandon
D B
You look across the floor
D E
Ain't anyone around
D E
Closing time
A E F#m
Unplug them people
D E
And send them home
A
It's closing time
A E F#m
Now Kenny he's been mixing sound all evening
D B
Sometimes I think that boy
D E
He ain't got no ears
A E
And Kathy's laughing
F#m
Kathy's always laughing
D B
Well keep on laughing Kathy
D E
Just make it out of here
D E
Closing time
A E F#m
Unplug them people
D E
And send them home
A
It's closing time
A E Fm#
So stack those chairs upon those tables
D B D E
And stack those empties upon that bar
A E
And count your money
F#m
And count my money
D B
And hear those bottles ringing
D E
You know where you are
D E
Closing time
A E F#m
Unplug them people
D E
And send them home
A
It's closing time
D E
The night's all that's left behind
A E F#m
You take your part and I'll take mine
D E
And go on home
A
It's closing time
