Love Is A Hurtin Thing

[Intro]
Eb     Ab/Eb       Eb     Ab/Eb

[Verse 1]
Eb                              Ab/Eb
For every little kiss there's a little teardrop
Eb                              Ab/Eb
For every single thrill there's another heartache
Gm
The road is rough
Cm           [1: Ab  2,3: Fm7]
The going gets tough

[Chorus]
          Bb  Bbmaj7 Gm             F
[1: Yes] love        is a hurtin' thing
Ab Abmaj7      Fm      Bb
Oh, love is a hurtin' thing

[Verse 2]
When you're in my arms I'm a king on a throne
But when we're apart I walk the streets alone
One day happiness
The next day, loneliness

[Bridge]
Eb6                               Ab            Bb
When love brings so much joy why must it bring such pain
Eb6                         Ab   Bb
Guess it's a mystery that nobody can explain
Eb       Ab       Eb       Ab
Gb  Eb   Cb Ab/Bb

[Instrumental]
Eb     Ab/Eb       Eb     Ab/Eb

[Verse 3]
Maybe I'm a fool to keep on loving you
'Cause there may come a time you'll break my heart in two
But I want you so
I want you though I know that

[Coda]
  Bb  Bbmaj7 Gm             F
Love        is a hurtin' thing
Bb Bbmaj7 Gm             F
Oh, love is a hurtin' thing  [fade]
