G                                           Am     C
It's the right time you know I feel fine tonight              *
         G                                  Am   C
It's the right place I've got my new face tonight           *

I'm in the right mind I've got  my new shoes tonight   *
           G                                Am C       D
I've got a new dress I couldn't care less tonight         *
C                                  G
Somebody told me I was so cold and mean (who was that talking)
C                                       G
Somebody wants you and don't want me in between(she better start
walkin)
C                                     D
Somebody hurt you but baby she wasn't me
             G                               Am  C
We'll find a new name for such a old game tonight     *
              G                           Am   C
I'll show you how long that I can go on tonight            *
C                           D
I don't know why you don't  want me
Em
Just when I think that I can make it without you
D
You come round and say you want me now
Am
You tell me don't leave and I want to believe you
C                                 D
Why can't you see just how much I need you
C                                  G
Somebody told me I was so cold and mean (who was that talking)
C                                           G
Somebody wants you and don't want me in between(she better start
walkin)
C                                     D
Somebody hurt you but baby she wasn't me
         G                            Am   C
It's the last chance for a romance tonight                         *
               G                                 Am   C
There'll be no next time if you won't be mine tonight     *
