(capo 3rd fret)

    G                    D
1.  Been one tough week, dead on my feet
    C                       D
    But, I've got plans for tonight
    G                      D
    When I'm feeling blue, know just what to do
    C                  D
    And how to make it right
    Am                          D
    Seems like I've needed this forever
          Am            D        G          D
    Gonna have myself a night to remember


(chorus)
            G                                  D
    Dim the lights, lock the door, spread your pictures
                            Em                   C
    on the floor, throw the dust off of our past let it
                                           G
    all come floodin' back, cause' it ain't easy being 
                     D
    strong and when I can't forget your gone I just    
Em             C             D        G 
    surrender, and have myself a night to remember.

    G                  D
2.  Sad ain't my style but once in a while 
    C                   D
    I just have to give in
    G                       D 
    Cause a woman like you, is so hard to lose
    C                         D
    You just don't want it to end
    Am                      D
    I know this can't go on forever 
       Am                  D        G  
    So tonight I'll have a night to remember

(repeat chorus)

(outro)
       D        G                            D   
    Oh it ain't easy being strong and when I can't     
                          Em 
    forget your gone I'll just surrender and have     C
       D        G
    myself a night to remember
