                             Closin' Time (Sammy Walker cover) - Yo La Tengo

Verse 1:
E                         A
Tell me who'll be left to cry
E                     A
as the funeral passes by
E             A                E
the statue of liberty as she's crumbling
E                      A
will we make her dying bed
E                     A
place a reef upon her head
E                       A                E
and say it was bound to happen sooner or later

Chorus:
A                      B
And the curtains goin' down
E                  A
and the feel of an old ghost town
F#m                B
will soon meet the clock we're turning around
A                           B
well the world aint worth a dime
E                     A
when the liberty bell has ceased its chime
E                  B                 E
i think that we'll know it's closin' time

A E x2

Verse 2:
E                  A
How can a bluebird sing
E                   A
in the middle of a spring
E                      A          E
with a broken heart of interfered direction (not sure about this line)
E                 A
how can a dewdrop fall
E                     A
on a mountain once so tall
E                          A          E
that's been covered with a blanket of deception

Chorus:
A                      B
And the curtains goin' down
E                  A
and the feel of an old ghost town
F#m                B
will soon meet the clock we're turning around
A                           B
well the world aint worth a dime
E                     A
when the liberty bell has ceased its chime
E                  B                 E
i think that we'll know it's closin' time

Verse 2:
E                  A
How can a bluebird sing
E                   A
in the middle of a spring
E                      A          E

E                 A
how can a dewdrop fall
E                     A

i think that we'll know it's closin' time
