CAPO 1
[Verse]
Am G
(TURN AROUND) Every now and then I get a little bit lonely, and you're never coming round
Am G
(TURN AROUND) Every now and then I get a little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
C Bb
(TURN AROUND) Every now and then I get a little bit nervous that the best of all
the years have gone by
C Bb
(TURN AROUND) Every now and then I get a little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
Eb Ab
(TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES) Every now and the I fall apart
Eb Ab G
(TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES) Every now and the I fall apart
[Chorus]
Em C D G
And I need you now, tonight, and I need you more than ever
Em C D G
And if you only hold me tight we'll be holding on forever
Em C D
And we'll only be making it right 'cause we'll never be wrong
C D
Together we can take it to the end of the line
Em A
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
G D
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
Em A
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
G D/F# G C
I really need you tonight, forever's gonna start tonight
D
Forever's gonna start tonight
G Em Bm C C/D
Once upon a time I was falling in love but now I'm only falling apart
Am D G Em C D
There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart
G Em Bm C C/D
Once upon a time there was light in my life but now there's only love in the dark
Am D G Em C D G
Nothing I can say, a total eclipse of the heart
[Instrumental]
