Standard (EADGBE)

 Well, it's closing time, I got no place to go

 No, I'm not tired; nobody's waiting at home

 Hey, what about you? Looks like you're leaving alone

 Guess that makes two - me and you

 By the way, my name's Jones

 I know a place it's not far from here

 That's my dented red Chevy out front

 You can follow me there

((Bridge))

 There's no neon lights

 It don't stink of beer

 It's just a mile up the road

 Just a minute from here

((CHORUS))

 These arms are open all night

 If you need someone to talk to

A hand to hold on to

 And if it feels alright

 These arms are open all night

(VERSE)

 The band is through, they're breaking down the drums

 The took the singer's keys, man, he was really drunk

 They're turning on the lights, we can't stay here no more

 I can take a hint, find my way out the door

((BRIDGE))

 So what do you think? Are you going my way?

 There's still a whole lot left to this night

 Baby, what do you say?

((CHORUS))

 These arms are open all night

 If you need someone to talk to

A hand to hold on to

 And if it feels alright

 These arms are open all night

((BRIDGE))

God only knows how long it's been that I been so lonely

Back there at the stop sign

I see her headlights

I think she's coming with me

((SOLO)) - slide

((CHORUS))

 These arms are open all night

 If you need someone to talk to

A hand to hold on to

 And if it feels alright

 These arms are open all night

 are open all night
