Selection chords: Sarah Harris

Intro: Am G F C x2

Verse:
           Am      G       F   C
It must be closing time in California
             Am       G        F  C
They must be shuttinʼ down the Sunset bars
           Am   G         F      C
Thatʼs the only time that I hear from yaʼ
          Am           G      F     C
Before my world lights up and yours goes dark

              Am      G         F          C
And thereʼs a western wave that called you out there
          Am       G          F     C
Thereʼs a southern voice that wants you back
           Am        G         F       C
Can almost smell the smoke and cheap tequila
           Am      G       F  C
While Iʼm about to pour my coffee, black

Chorus:
          F  C   F   C
Iʼve been trying to forget
                F  G   F    Am
And youʼve 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:
          Am         G      F      C
Thereʼs 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 youʼre still in heels in your bed, sideways
        Am    G        F    C
Wishinʼ I was there to keep you warm
        Am        G     F      C
Damn, I wish that I was too, good Lord

Chorus:
          F          C
Iʼve been trying to forget
                F  G   F    Am
And youʼve 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 timinʼ right
           F           C         Dm
Yeah, itʼs 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 ainʼt out there
          Am      G       F   C
Then itʼs closing time in California
          Am   G          F            C
And baby, Tennessee ainʼt gone nowhere
