(Intro.)
|(Bm)(A)(G)|(D) / / / |(Bm)(A)(G)|(D) / /

(Verse 1)
It must be (Bm)closing (A)time in (G)Cali-(D)fornia
They must be (Bm)shuttin' (A)down the (G)Sunset (D) bars
That's the (Bm)only (A)time that (G)I hear (D)from ya'
Before my (Bm)world lights (A)up and (G)yours goes (D) dark

(Verse 2)
And there's a (Bm)western (A)wave that (G)called you (D)out there
There's a (Bm)southern (A)voice that (G)wants you (D) back
Can almost (Bm)smell the (A)smoke and (G)cheap te-(D)quila
While I'm a-(Bm)bout to (A)pour my (G)coffee, (D) black

(Chorus)
I've been (G)trying to for-(D)-get
And you've been (G)trying not to (Bm) miss
Me and move (A) on
It must be (Bm)closing (A)time in (G)Cali-(D)fornia
Baby, (Bm)cut me (A)off or (G)come back (D) home
Hm, mm, (Bm)mm, mm, (A)mm, mm, (G)mm, mm, (D)mm, mm
 
(Verse 3)
There's a (Bm)ghost that (A)dances (G)in the (D)driveway
In a (Bm)dress that (A)hit this (G)hard pine (D) floor
Bet you're (Bm)still in (A)heels in (G)your bed, (D) sideways
Wishin' (Bm)I was (A)there to (G)keep you (D) warm
Damn, I (Bm)wish that (A)I was (G)too, good (D) Lord

(Chorus)
I've been (G)trying to for-(D)-get
And you've been (G)try-(A)ing (G)not to (Bm) miss
Me and move (A) on
It must be (Bm)closing (A)time in (G)Cali-(D)fornia
Baby, (Bm)cut me (A)off or (G)come back (D) home
Come back (Bm) home (A)
Come back (G) home (D/F#)
Yeah, (Em)yeah

(Bridge)
I guess we (Bm)never got the (D)timin' (A) right
Yeah, it's (G)3 on your wall, (D/F#) and 5 on (Em) mine

(Outro.)
It must be (Bm)closing (A)time in (G)Cali-(D)fornia
If what you (Bm)went to (A)find just (G)ain't out (D) there
Then it's (Bm)closing (A)time in (G)Cali-(D)fornia
And baby, (Bm)Tennes-(A)see ain't (G)gone no-(D)-where - - - - -
