[D]
[E] [D]
[E] A line of cars pulls [D] up before [E] the hotel, your hands gripped tight around the wide [D] slab
[E] of a telephone saying, we will paint as a western place.
On the little TV in the corner, sequence on the [B] dress of the woman [E] leaning on your neck
saying, you look [B] wonderful, you never seen [E] you look better.
Sequence on the dress [B] of the woman [E] leaning on your neck saying, you really are [B] my guy.
[E]
Have you [Em] heard, [B] they're closing [Em] down the pool hall?
Have you [B] heard, they're turning it [E] into flats?
[Em] Have you [B] heard, they're closing [E] down the pool hall?
There's nothing that you [B] can do [E] about that.
[Em] [B] [E]
Spanish guitar lands up in the [B] corner, you bend to the [E] river to talk to your brother,
you some minor key song [Bm] to your parents [E] friends.
Sugar in the shaker, ice in the [B] cola, in the [E] booths of the beautiful diner, girls in turquoise
swish through the [B] corridor, eating [E] popcorn till they find you in the cinema.
Pull to the brim [B] with no, [E]
and now you're hiding in a [Bm] telephone booth.
[E]
Have you heard, [B] they're closing [E] down the pool hall?
Have you [B] heard, they're turning [E] it into flats?
Have you heard, [B] they're closing [Em] down the pool hall?
There's nothing that you can do [E] about that.

This is just a whisper, a whisper on high, burst out of your [Em] polka dot shirt like [B] the
Hulk and [E] burn your tie.
You get past mashed [B] ribbons on the dressing [E] room floor.
[Em] I think I've heard this [B] little tale [E] before.
Did you [Em] know, they're [E] closing down the pool hall?
[Em] Did you know, they're [E] turning it into flats?
Did you know, they're closing down the pool hall?
There's nothing that you [B] can do [E] about that.
