G                Em          G
Somebody's gonna hurt someone
                     Em
before the night is through
G                 C          G
Somebody's gonna come undone.
                        D
There's nothin' we can do.

Everybody wants to touch somebody
if it takes all night.
Everybody wants to take a little chance,
Make it come out right.

G                   C7
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
                         G  G7
a heartache tonight, I know.
                    C7
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
                        A
a heartache tonight I know.
          D
Lord, I know.

Some people like to stay out late
Some folks can't hold out that long
But nobody wants to go home now
There's too much goin' on

This night is gonna last forever
Last all, last all summer long
Some time before the sun comes up
The radio is gonna play that song

Chorus

                    G
There's gonna be a heartache tonight,
     G7
the moon's shinin' bright
    C                       C7
so turn out the light, and we'll get it right.
                    G
There's gonna be a heartache tonight, a
C7                    G
heartache tonight I know.

Somebody's gonna hurt someone (somebody)
Before the night is through
Somebody's gonna come undone
There's nothin' we can do

(Everybody) Everybody wants to touch somebody
If it takes all night
Everybody wants to take a little chance
To make it come out right

Chorus

We can beat around the bushes
We can get down to the bone
We can leave it in the parkin' lot
But either way, there's gonna be a
Heartache tonight, a heartache tonight,
I know (Lord, I know)
There'll be a heartache tonight
A heartache tonight, I know
Woohoo!!!
