[Intro]
Am   Dm   G   Am
[Verse]
AmClosing time is Dmclosing in
GLast call, Amthe bar is 'gesloten'
AmDon't have to go home but Dmyou can't stay here
GStumble down the stairs into the Amstreets again
AmMight be an answer here but DmI don't know
GGave up my sanity to Amsave my soul
AmSMS from the afterlife Dmthere on my phone
Says, G"Relax while you're here and don't Amsweat the tomorrow"
AmSometimes the money ain't Dmcoming in
GSometimes you forgAmet why you're living
AmSometimes you lose, someDmtimes you win
GSometimes you give, someAmtimes you get taken
[Chorus]
AmUnder the neDmon lights sGweeping the fAmloors
   AmPull up the cDmhairs and wiGpe the bar doAmwn man
AmOne last sDmhot and you're oGut the dAmoor
And it's AmoverDm  G  Am  
[Verse]
AmGod knows but he Dmjust ain't telling
Why the Gdevil gets to sleep while all the Amangels have to
AmSing for a living in this Dmoffkey choir
ForGgive my transgressions, fulAmfill my desires
AmIf I was with you I'd be Dmhome tonight
But you're Gso far away that I Amjust stopped trying
AmBetter off sailing on this Dmsea of life
From Gone port to the next
Than Amsunk by your hurricane
AmSometimes time just goes Dmslipping by
GSometimes you can lose Amfocus in life
But Amas you stumble out into the Dmmorning light
Well, it's GalAmright
[Chorus]
AmUnder the neDmon lights sGweeping the fAmloors
   AmPull up the cDmhairs and wiGpe the bar doAmwn man
AmOne last sDmhot and you're oGut the dAmoor
And it's AmoverDm  G  Am  
AmUnder the neDmon lights sGweeping the fAmloors
   AmPull up the cDmhairs and wiGpe the bar doAmwn man
AmOne last sDmhot and you're oGut the dAmoor

[Intro]

Am Dm G Am

[Verse]

Am Dm

Closing time is closing in

G Am

Last call, the bar is 'gesloten'

Am Dm

Don't have to go home but you can't stay here

G Am

Stumble down the stairs into the streets again

Am Dm

Might be an answer here but I don't know

G Am

Gave up my sanity to save my soul

Am Dm

SMS from the afterlife there on my phone

G Am

Says, "Relax while you're here and don't sweat the tomorrow"

Am Dm

Sometimes the money ain't coming in

G Am

Sometimes you forget why you're living

Am Dm

Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win

G Am

Sometimes you give, sometimes you get taken

[Chorus]

Am Dm G Am

Under the neon lights sweeping the floors

Am Dm G Am

Pull up the chairs and wipe the bar down man

Am Dm G Am

One last shot and you're out the door

Am Dm G Am

And it's over

[Verse]

Am Dm

God knows but he just ain't telling

G Am

Why the devil gets to sleep while all the angels have to

Am Dm

Sing for a living in this offkey choir

G Am

Forgive my transgressions, fulfill my desires

Am Dm

If I was with you I'd be home tonight

G Am

But you're so far away that I just stopped trying

Am Dm

Better off sailing on this sea of life

From one port to the next

Than sunk by your hurricane

Am Dm

Sometimes time just goes slipping by

G Am

Sometimes you can lose focus in life

Am Dm

But as you stumble out into the morning light

G Am

Well, it's alright

[Chorus]

Am Dm G Am

Under the neon lights sweeping the floors

Am Dm G Am

Pull up the chairs and wipe the bar down man

Am Dm G Am

One last shot and you're out the door

Am Dm G Am

And it's over

Am Dm G Am

Under the neon lights sweeping the floors

Am Dm G Am

Pull up the chairs and wipe the bar down man

Am Dm G Am

One last shot and you're out the door

Am Dm G Am

And it's over

Am Dm G Am

And it's over

Am Dm G Am

And it's over...
