Well
I've been over drinkin'

🎸 Verse 1:
            G
And those bastards get richer
           D
While the poor dig ditches
     A                  Bm
To bury their dreamin' in
      G
And labor don't cheat
      D               A                      Bm
Baby, 5 a.m. is the reason they're sleepin' in
     G
Oh, men build churches
        D
So the kids find worth in
 A                          Bm
Somethin' bigger than themselves
G              D
But the uncorruptible don't exist
         A                       Bm
And you can't buy your way outta Hell

🎸 Interlude:
   G     D
Closin' time
     A              Bm
I'm lost again past two

Closin' time
       A                    Bm
It'll always just be me and you

'Cause I get so **** anxious at night
    G                     D

You just learn to say you're alright

 G                      D

    A                  Bm
I found it so hard to find truth
  G                      D
Poems and closing time, only true friend of mine
       A                    Bm
It'll always just be me and you

🎸 Outro:
     G                        D
So don't try to pain me and don't try play me
    A                 Bm
As one of your sorry fools
  G                     D
Poems and closing time, oh, sweet love of mine
      A                    Bm
In a world that's growing so cruel,
