Lyrics

[Intro]
| G | G7 | C7 | - |
| G | D7 | G  | - |

[Verse 1]
         G                  G7                C7
This old smokefilled bar is something I'm not used to
           G                          D7
But I gave up my home to see you satisfied
           G                 G7                 C7
And I just called to let you know where I'll be living
         G
It's not much,
           D7             G
but I feel welcome here inside

[Chorus]
             G                 G7
And I've got swinging doors, a jukebox,
      C7
and a barstool
           G                        D7
And my new home has a flashing neon sign
     G             G7      C7
Stop by and see me anytime you want to
           G              D7                G
'Cause I'm always here at home till closing time

[Interlude]
| G | G7 | C7 | - |
| G | D7 | G  | - |

[Verse 2]
         G            G7               C7
I've got everything I need to drive me crazy
             G                           D7
And I've got everything it takes to lose my mind
       G                    G7               C7
And in here the atmosphere's  just right for heartaches
              G              D7                G
And thanks to you I'm always here till closing time

[Chorus]
             G                 G7
And I've got swinging doors, a jukebox,
      C7
and a barstool
           G                        D7
And my new home has a flashing neon sign
     G             G7      C7
Stop by and see me anytime you want to
           G              D7                G
'Cause I'm always here at home till closing time

[Outro]
    G              D7                G   D7 G
I'm always here at home till closing time
