Lyrics:

 AEF#m
 The night she is a true companion

 DB
 They shuffle in

 DE
 They hear the sound

 AE
 But by night's end

 F#m
It's night's abandon

 DB
 You look across the floor

 DE
 Ain't anyone around

 DE
 Closing time

 AEF#m
 Unplug them people

 DE
 And send them home

 A
It's closing time

 AEF#m
 Now Kenny he's been mixing sound all evening

 DB
 Sometimes I think that boy

 DE
 He ain't got no ears

 AE
 And Kathy's laughing

 F#m
 Kathy's always laughing

 DB
 Well keep on laughing Kathy

 DE
 Just make it out of here

 DE
 Closing time

 AEF#m
 Unplug them people

 DE
 And send them home

 A
It's closing time

 AEFm#
 So stack those chairs upon those tables

 DBDE
 And stack those empties upon that bar

 AE
 And count your money

 F#m
 And count my money

 DB
 And hear those bottles ringing

 DE
 You know where you are

 DE
 Closing time

 AEF#m
 Unplug them people

 DE
 And send them home

 A
It's closing time

 DE
 The night's all that's left behind

 AEF#m
 You take your part and I'll take mine

 DE
 And go on home

 A
It's closing time
