Closing Time

     A                         D               A
Every afternoon at five o'clock, I forget all about you
           A                             D                   E
There ain't nothin' 'bout this honky tonk, to remind me we're through
         D                             E                            A
And I can put off goin back to that old empty house, you swore you'd never leave
       Bm                        E                    A
From the lonliness you handed me, I can get a brief reprieve

[Chorus]
               D            E                       A
From here until closin' time, it won't matter you're gone
     A         Bm         D                    E
I can fill up my emptiness, maybe make it on my own

                 D              E                       A                 F#m
From now til they lock the doors, put the chaires up and sweep the floors
             Bm             E                D       A     E
You won't even cross my mind, from here until closin' time

[Verse]
        A                               D                   A
Well the good old days are good and gone, since you left without me
          A                              D             E
If I could figure out where we went wrong, maybe I'd be free
     D                               E                           A
These ties that bind my foolish heart, just won't let me start my life again
     Bm                               E                   A
Then I wouldn't need this lonesome bar, where I come to pretend

[Chorus]
               D            E                       A
From here until closin' time, it won't matter you're gone
    A           Bm              D                    E
Your mem'ry won't break my heart, I can make it on my own
                 D              E                      A                 F#m
From now til they lock the doors, put the chairs up and sweep the floors
             Bm             E                D       A
You won't even cross my mind, from here until closin' time

[Ending]
     A                         D              A
Every afternoon at five o'clock, I forget all about you
