Play this on an acoustic and drop the tuning a half-step. [Chorus] (1,2,3) C A7 If you close the door Dm G The night could last forever C A7 Leave the sunshine out Dm G And say hello to never [Verse] C C7 All the people are dancing and they're having such fun F Fm I wish this could happen to me C A7 But if you close the door Dm G C I'll never have to see the day again C A7 But if you close the door Dm G The night could last forever C A7 Leave the wine glass out Dm G And drink a toast to never C C7 Someday I know someone will look into my eyes F And say hello Fm You're my very special one C A7 But if you close the door Dm G C (Bass line to bridge: C - B - Bb ) I'll never have to see the day again [Bridge] Am E7 Am E7 Dark party bars, shiny Cadillac cars Am E7 Am Am G# G And people on subways and trains Dm A7 Dm A7 Looking gray in the rain as they stand disarrayed F G Oh but people look well in the dark [Chorus] C A7 If you close the door Dm G The night could last forever C A7 Leave the sunshine out Dm G And say hello to never C C7 All the people are dancing and they're having such fun F Fm I wish this could happen to me C A7 Cause if you close the door Dm G C I'll never have to see the day again Dm G C A7 I'll never have to see the day again (once more) Dm G C I'll never have to see the day again Chords: Am E7 E A D G B E E A D G B E ___________ ___________ | | | O O O (5th fret) | | | O | O (7th fret) ----------- ----------- | | | | | | | | | | | | ----------- ----------- | | O | | | | | O | O | ----------- -----------
