If you close the [G] door
[Cm] The night could last [F] forever
[Bb] Leave the sun, [G] shine out
[Cm] And say hello [F] to never
[Bb] All the people are dancing and they're having such fun
[Eb] I wish it could happen [Ebm] to me
[A] But [Bb] if you close [G] the door
I'd [F] never have to see the day [A] again
[Bb] If you close [G] the door
The [Cm] night could last [F] forever
[Dm]
[Bb] Leave the wine, [G] glass out
[Cm] And drink a toast [F] to never
[Bb] Oh someday I know someone will look into my eyes and [Eb] say hello
[A] You're my very [Ebm] special one
[A] But [Bb] if you close the [G] door
I'd [F] never have to see the day again
[A] [Dm]
Dog party bars, [A] shiny Cadillac cars
[D] And the people [A] on subways [Dm] and trains
[G] Look green-gray in the rain as they stand disarrayed
[Cm] All but people look well [F] in the dark
And [Bb] if you close the [G] door
The [Cm] night could last [F] forever
[Bb] Leave the sun, [G] shine out
[Cm] And say hello [F] to never
[Bb] All the people are dancing and they're having such fun
[Eb] I wish it could [Ebm] happen to me
[B] Cause [Bb]
if you close [G] the door
I'd [F] never have to see the day [G] again
I'd [F] never have to see [Dm] the day again [G] Once more
I'd never [F] have to see [Bb] the day again
[N]
