Verse
[Am] (Turn around) Every now and then I get a [G] little bit lonely, and you're never coming round
[Am] (Turn around) Every now and then I get a [G] little bit tired of listening to the sound of my tears
[C] (Turn around) Every now and then I get a [Bb] little bit nervous that the best of all
the years have gone by
[C] (Turn around) Every now and then I get a [Bb] little bit terrified and then I see the look in your eyes
[Eb] (Turn around, [Ab] Bright eyes) Every now and the I fall apart
[Eb] (Turn around, [Ab] Bright eyes) Every now and the I fall [G] apart

Chorus:
And I [Em] need you now, to-[C] night, and I [D] need you more than [G] ever
And if you [Em] only hold me [C] tight we'll be [D] holding on [G] forever
And we'll [Em] only be making it [C] right 'cause we'll [D] never be wrong
[C] Together we can take it to the [D] end of the line
Your [Em] love is like a shadow on me [A] all of the time
I [G] don't know what to do and I'm [D] always in the dark
We're [Em] living in a powder keg and [A] giving off sparks
I really need you [G] tonight, [D] forever's gonna [G] start [C] tonight
[D] Forever's gonna start tonight

[G] Once upon a time I was [Em] falling in love but [Bm] now I'm only falling [C] apart
There's [Am] nothing I can do, a [D] total eclipse of the [G] heart [Em] [C] [D]
[G] Once upon a time there was [Em] light in my life but [Bm] now there's only love in the [C] dark
[Am] Nothing I can say, a [D] total eclipse of the [G] heart [Em] [C] [D] [G]
[Am] [G] [Am] [G] – [C] [Bb] [C] [Bb]
