E                C#m          E 
Somebody's gonna hurt someone  
                    C#m 
before the night is through  
E                A           E 
Somebody's gonna come undone. 
                       B 
There's nothin' we can do.  
E                  C#m            E 
Everybody wants to touch somebody  
                C#m 
if it takes all night.  
E                  A                     E 
Everybody wants to take a little chance,  
                 B 
Make it come out right.

E                  A7 
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,  
                       E    E7 
a heartache tonight, I know.  
                   A7                                       F#

[Estrofe]
E                   C#m           E 
Some people like to stay out late  
                               C#m 
Some folks can't hold out that long  
    E               A            E 
But nobody wants to go home now,  
                       B 
there's too much goin' on.   
E                   C#m          E 
This night is gonna last forever,  
                          C#m 
Last all, last all summer long.  
E                    A            E 
Some time before the sun comes up  
                   B 
The radio is gonna play that song. 
[Refrão]
E                  A7

                   A7                                       F# 
There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a heartache tonight I know.  
        B 
Lord, I know.   
                   E 
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,  
    E7 
the moon's shinin' bright  
   A                       A7 
so turn out the light, and we'll get it right.  
                   E 
There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a  
A7                  E 
heartache tonight I know.

We can beat around the bushes;

we can get down to the bone

We can leave it in the parkin' lot,  
    A7

a heartache tonight I know.
