                   QUEEN OF HEARTS             Juice Newton
Intro
D
Midnight, and I'm waiting on the twelve O five 
                                                     G
Hoping it'll take me just a little further down the line
D
Moonlight, you're just a heartache in disguise 
                                                                            
                               
Won't you keep my heart from breaking if it's only for a very short 
  G
time.

CHORUS:
A                 G         D             A        D            G
Playing with the queen of hearts  and knowing it ain't really smart, 
                      A   D          Bm          G       A         D
the joker ain't the only foo   ooo   ool  who'll do anything for you
A               G      D     A              D        G
Planning out another line thinking about a life of crime 
                  A      D          Bm      G        A        D
that's what I'll have to do   ooo  ooo  to keep me away from you.

      D
2.) Honey, I know it makes you mad 
                                                       G
     why is everybody telling everybody what you have done
      D
    Baby, I know it makes you sad,
                                                                      G
when they're handing out the heartaches you know you've got to have some
go to chorus, then to 3rd verse
        D
3.)  Lovers, I know you've had a few 
                                                                      G
 and how you hide beneath the covers and tell them they're the only one
         D
      Lovers, they know just what I'm going through 
                                                                  G
   It's so hard to be a lover when you say you're only in it for fun.
