(Intro E-B7-E)  
 
E                              B7      
Somebody put a quarter in the jukebox 
                                    E 
Somebody play that certain hurtin' song 
                              A 
That one about forever, that one about no never 
      B7                                   E 
That one about the good love that's gone wrong 
 
E                                       B7 
I'd tell our friends I'm doin' fine without you 
                                 E 
I'd tell our friends I never am alone 
                                     A 
But I'm afraid they'll know it Yes, I'm afraid I'll show it 
        B7                              E 
'Cause all I ever play's that same ole song 
 
Chorus 
E                                  B7   
So, Somebody put a quarter in the jukebox 
                                    E 
Somebody play that certain hurtin' song 
                              A 
That one about forever, that one about no never 
      B7                                 E   
That one about the good love thats gone wrong 
 
(Instr.E-B7-E-A-B7-E) 
E                                     B7 
So I'm sittin' here a staring at the jukebox 
                             E 
Hopin' that somebody comes along 
                                        A 
Somebody who for starters will have a pocket full of quarters 
            B7                                       E 
And who'll play that love gone wrong song all night long. 
 
(Repeat Chorus)  
  
Tagg: 
E                   B7               E  
Somebody play the jukebox all night long...
