G                Em           G 
Somebody's gonna hurt someone 
                  Em
before the night is through
G                C         
somebody's gonna come undone, 
   G                      D
there's nothing we can do.
G                  Em             
Everybody wants to touch somebody,
 G               Em
 if it takes all night.
G                  C             
Everybody wants to take a little 
        G                D
chance, make it come out right.

        D7         C7      
There's gonna be a heartache 
                                 G
tonight, a heartache tonight I know.
                   C7       
There's gonna be a heartache 
                                A7
tonight, a heartache tonight I know.
        D7
Lord, I know.


Continues after the ad
Some people like to stay out late, 
some folks can't hold out that long.
But nobody wants to go home now, 
there's too much going on.
This night is gonna last forever, 
last all, last all summer long,
some time before the sun comes up 
the radio is gonna play that song.

There's gonna be a heartache 
tonight, a heartache tonight I know.
There's gonna be a heartache 
tonight, a heartache tonight I know.
Lord, I know.

                   G        
There's gonna be a heartache 
              G7
tonight, the moon's shining bright,
   C7                      Eb7
so turn out the light, and we'll get
 it right,
                   G        
there's gonna be a heartache 
            D7                  G
tonight, a heartache tonight I know.

Somebody's gonna hurt someone before
 the night is through,
somebody's gonna come undone, 
there's nothing we can do.
Everybody wants to touch somebody, 
if it takes all night.
Everybody wants to take a little 
chance, make it come out right.

There's gonna be a heartache 
tonight, a heartache tonight I know.
There's gonna be a heartache 
tonight, a heartache tonight I know,
once more.

       G                         
We can beat around the bushes, we 
     G7
can get down to the bone,
       C7                          
we can leave it in a parking lot 
  Eb7
but either way
                   G        
there's gonna be a heartache 
            D7                 
tonight, a heartache tonight, I 
  G       C
know.
              G                    
There'll be a heartache tonight, a 
D7                   G
heartache tonight, I know.
