Radney Foster - Closing Time

      
 
 A                              
 Every afternoon at five o'clock
 D                     A 
 I forget all about you
                                        D 
 There ain't nothin bout this honky tonk
                           A 
 To remind me we're through
           D                 
 And I can put off going back
              E                                     A 
 To that old empty house you swore you'd never leave
                Bm                      
 And from the loneliness you handed mees
  E                        A 
 I can get a brief reprieve
 
 Chorus;
    A     Bm   C#m        D            E                  A 
 From here until closing time, it won't matter you're gone
       A                 C#m    D                     E 
 1.I can fill up my emptiness, maybe make it on my own
 2.Your memory won't break my heart, I can make it on my own
 
 (ch)B#m(/ch) C#m D
 From now till they lock the doors
       E                           A   
 Put the chairs up and sweep the floors
 (ch)B#m(/ch) C#m D
 You won't even cross my mind
     E          D            A 
 From here until closing time
 
 Verse;
    A                                    D 
 Well the good ole days are good and gone
    D                     A 
 Since you left without me
                                          D 
 If I could figure out where we went wrong
                  A 
 Maybe I'd be free
       D                                   
 From these ties that bind my foolish heart
      E                                    A 
 That just won't let me start my life again
            Bm                             
 And then I wouldn't need this lonesome bar
   E                    A 
 Where I come to pretend
 
 Chorus;
 
 A                              D 
 Every afternoon at five o'clock
                       A 
 I forget all about you
