E                           B  A
You're closing off for the night
E                       B A
And not a soul left inside
E                       B A
You've had a long hard day
E                             B A
Don't make it harder on yourself

E                     A               B
Everybody needs some time, take some time
       C#m
just to get away
E                   A                   B    C#m
Baby, I could find some time, I've got time
E                     A               B
Everybody needs some time, take some time
        C#m
ust to get away
E                        A              B
Baby, I could find some time, I've got time
on my hands

Chorus:
       E              B     A
After hours when the city's in bed
       E                      B         A
After hours, that's when I'm out of my head
       E                       B      A
I'm a live wire, it's when I'm at my best
       E        B   A
After hours, after hours

Too many bills to pay (Ooh)
But all the loose cents can wait
You've had far worse days (Ooh)
So pour a drink, I'll do the same

Chorus

E A B C#m
         Ooh
E A B C#m
         Ooh
E A B C#m
         Ooh
E A B C#m
         Ooh

Everybody needs some time,
take some time just to get away (Ooh)
Baby, I can find some time,
I've got time on my hands

Chorus:
After hours when the city's in bed
After hours, that's when I'm outta my head
I'm a live wire, it's when I'm at my best
After hours, mm, after hours
After hours when the city's in bed
After hours, that's when I'm outta my head
I'm a live wire, it's when I'm at my best
After hours, after hours
