[Intro]
Am G F C   Am G F C
 
 
[Verse 1]
           Am      G       F   C
It must be closing time in California
             Am       G        F  C
They must be shuttin' down the Sunset bars
           Am   G         F      C
That's the only time that I hear from ya'
          Am           G      F     C
Before my world lights up and yours goes dark
 
 
[Verse 2]
              Am      G         F          C
And there's a western wave that called you out there
          Am       G          F     C
There's a southern voice that wants you back
           Am        G         F       C
Can almost smell the smoke and cheap tequila
           Am      G       F  C
While I'm about to pour my coffee, black
 
 
[Chorus]
          F  C   F   C
I've been trying to forget
                F  G   F    Am
And you've been trying not to miss
        G
Me and move on
           Am      G       F   C
It must be closing time in California
      Am     G      F    C          Am G F C
Baby, cut me off or come back home
 
 
[Verse 3]
          Am         G      F      C
There's a ghost that dances in the driveway
     Am         G        F   C
In a dress that hit this hard pine floor
           Am       G        F         C
Bet you're still in heels in your bed, sideways
        Am    G        F    C
Wishin' I was there to keep you warm
        Am        G     F      C
Damn, I wish that I was too, good Lord
 
 
[Chorus]
          F          C
I've been trying to forget
                F  G   F    Am
And you've been trying not to miss
        G
Me and move on
           Am      G       F   C
It must be closing time in California
      Am     G      F    C
Baby, cut me off or come back home
      Am       G
Come back home
      F        C
Come back home
Dm
Yeah, yeah
 
 
[Bridge]
           Am               C   G
I guess we never got the timin' right
           F           C         Dm
Yeah, it's 3 on your wall, and 5 on mine
 
 
[Outro]
           Am      G       F   C
It must be closing time in California
            Am      G         F     C
If what you went to find just ain't out there
          Am      G       F   C
Then it's closing time in California
          Am   G          F            C
And baby, Tennessee ain't gone nowhere
