[Verse 1]
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 then I fall apart
Eb            Ab                                      G
(Turn around, Bright eyes) Every now and then 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                  B7                    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                   B7                           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

      Em              C            D                  G

           Em           C              D             G

I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark

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

Once upon a time I was falling in love but now I'm only falling apart
Am                   D                    G    Em   C
Nothing I can say, a total eclipse of the heart
  D                    G    Em   C
A total eclipse of the heart
  D                    G    Em   C
A total eclipse of the heart
  D                    G    Em   C
