It’s a Heartache
Juice Newton
Tabbed by Kane Smith (heyitskane at yahoo.com)

This song later became a hit for Bonnie Tyler 

The song begins with only Juice’s voice and background 
percussion. After the first two lines, a light organ
sound begins coming in 

Verse:
(NC)
It's a heartache, nothing but a heartache
(NC)
Hits you when it's too late, hits you when you're down
        C                          Em
It's a fools' game, nothing but a fool's game
                 F                          C     G
Standing in the cold rain, feeling like a clown
         C                        Em
It's a heartache, nothing but a heartache
                     F                              C    G
Love him 'till your arms break, then he'll let you down

Bridge:
          F                   G
It ain't right with love to share
          Em              Am7        G F Em 
When you find he doesn't care for you
          F                 G
It ain't wise to need someone 
           Em         Am7  G  F  Em  Dsus2
As much as I depended on you

Verse:
Oh, it's heartache, nothing but a heartache
Hits you when it's too late, hits you when you're down
It's a fool's game, nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain, feeling like a clown

Bridge:
It ain't right with love to share
When you find he doesn't care for you
It ain't wise to need someone 
As much as I depended on you

Verse:
Oh, it's a heartache, nothing but a heartache
You love him 'till your arms break, then he'll let you down
It's a fool's game, nothing but a fool's game
Standing in the cold rain, feeling like a clown
