	Eb                              Ab/Eb
	For every little kiss there's a little teardrop
	Eb                              Ab/Eb
	For every single thrill there's another heartache
	Gm
	The road is rough

Verse 2:

	When you're in my arms I'm a king on a throne

	The next day, loneliness

Bridge:

	Eb6                               Ab            Bb

	Eb6                         Ab   Bb

	Maybe I'm a fool to keep on loving you
	'Cause there may come a time you'll break my heart in two
	But I want you so
	I want you though I know that

Coda:

	 Bb  Bbmaj7 Gm             F
	Love        is a hurtin' thing
	Bb Bbmaj7 Gm             F
	Oh, love is a hurtin' thing  [fade]
