[Intro]
|(D) |(D) |(G) |(G)
I Gsaid I'm through with G7honky tonks, they Conly bring me Adown
I Ddressed my best and headed for the brightest spot in Gtown
I've watched the rich folks come and go and one thing's very Cclear
There's Djust as many lonely people Ghere
[Chorus]
I'm just Ghangin' around a G7better class of Closers
It don't Dmatter if you drink bear or cham- G-pagne
I've only found a G7better class of Closers
DUptown, downtown misery's all Gthe same
|(D) |(D) |(G) |(G)
Well, Git's been all down- G7hill for me since Cbaby walked a- Away
I'm Ddown here at the bottom and I guess that's where I'll Gstay
And I'm looking for the answers, but all that I've seen Chere
Is the Dsame old lonely phony atmos- Gphere
[Chorus]
I'm just Ghangin' around a G7better class of Closers
It don't Dmatter if you drink bear or cham- G-pagne
I've only found a G7better class of Closers
DUptown, downtown misery's all Gthe same
Yeah, the Gblues are still the blues, still Cjust as hard to lose
DUptown, downtown, misery's all Gthe same
[Outro]
