total eclipse (from memory, so it might be a little off....).
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit lonely
and you're never coming round.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit tired
of list'ning to the sound of my tears.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit nervous
that the best of all the years have gone by.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit terrified
and then I see the look in your eyes.
TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart.
TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit restless
and I dream of something wild.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit helpless
and I'm lying like a child in your arms.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit angry
and I know I've got to get out and cry.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I get a little bit terrified
but then I see the look in your eyes.
TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart.
TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart.
And I need you now tonight and I need you more than ever
and if you only hold me tight we'll be holding on forever.
And we'll only be making it right 'cause we'll never be wrong.
Together we can take it to the end of the line.
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time.
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.
I really need you tonight, forever's gonna start tonight,
forever's gonna start tonight.
Once upon a time I was falling in love but now I'm only falling
apart.
There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart.
Once upon a time there was light in my life but now there's only love
in
the dark.
Nothing I can say, a total eclipse of the heart.
Musical break and the second verse just repeat the same as the first.
Song fades out on:
Turn around, bright eyes
I might be off on the first section, but the rest is correct.
Oh, and it's words and music by Jim Steinman; Tyler only recorded it.

TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES
TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES
TURN AROUND Every now and then I know you'll never be the boy
you always wanted to be.
TURN AROUND But every now and then I know you'll always be
the only boy who wanted me the way that I am.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I know there's no one in the universe
as magical and wondrous as you.
TURN AROUND Every now and then I know there's nothing any better,
there's nothing that I just wouldn't do.
TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart.
TURN AROUND, BRIGHT EYES Every now and then I fall apart.
And I need you now tonight...(see before)
Once upon a time I was...(see before)

Notes:
...I heard an annoying techno version of this song tonight at a dance
party, which inspired me to come home and try to do a decent-sounding
acoustic remake. the music was so loud I probably have permanent
hearing loss, so it's not my fault if these chords aren't right! :)
...lyrics nabbed from ftp.uwp.edu.
...pick the chords creatively during the verses, it sounds prettier.
...feel free to write me about corrections or enhancements, or if you're
a seattle-based musician looking for a band, or whatever!
...and the chord formations (or how I play them, anyhow):
Am x02210
G 320033
C x32010
F 133211
Bb 113331
Eb 668881
D xx0232
Em 022000
A x02220
C/D x32013
