Closing Time Chords by Radney Foster

[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Every afternoon at five [Eb] o'clock I forget [Bb] all about you
There _ _ _ ain't nothing but this honky [Eb]-tonk to remind [F] me we're through
[Bb] _ [F] _ _ _ [Bb]
[Eb] And I can put off going back to [F] the old empty house you swore [Bb] you'd never leave _ _ _ _
[Cm] From the loneliness you handed [F] me I can get a [Bb] brief reprieve
From here [Eb] until closing [F] time It won't matter, [Bb] you're gone
I [B] can fill [Cm] up my _ emptiness Maybe make it [F] on my own
From [Bb] now [Eb] till midnight goes [F] Put the chairs [Bb] up and sweep the floors
[Gm] _ You won't [Cm] even cross my mind [F] _ From here [Eb] until closing [Bb] time
Well, [F] _
[Bb] the good old days are good and [Eb] gone Since you [Bb] left without me _ _ _ _
If I could figure out where we went [Eb] wrong [Bb] Maybe [Eb]
[F] I'd be free
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb]
[Eb] These ties that bind my foolish heart [F] Just won't let me start my [Bb] life again
And _ _ [Cm] then I wouldn't need this lonesome bar [F] Where I come to [Bb] pretend
From here [Eb] until closing [F] time It won't matter, [Bb] you're gone
Your _ [B] memory [Cm] won't break my heart I can make it on [F] my own
From [Bb] now till [Eb] midnight goes _ [F] Put the chairs [Bb] up and sweep the floors
[Gm] You won't [Cm] even cross my mind [F] _ From here [Eb] until closing time
[Bb] _ [F] Every _
[Bb] afternoon at five o'clock [Eb] I forget [Bb]
all about you _ _ _ _
