Introduction:

                       A/C#                 Bm       G               D/F#         G 
I've been watching you waltz all night Diane
                   D                             Bm             A                         D 
Nobody's found a way behind your defenses
                         A/C#             Bm   G                     D/F#         G 
They never notice the zap gun in your hand
                             D/F#                       Em                       D/F# 
Until you're pointing it and stunning their senses
 Bm     A           G             D/F#     Em       G 
All night long, all night long
                                   D/F#                                         Bm                     A       Bm 
You'll shoot 'em down because you're waiting for somebody
                   A             G 
good to come on
 Bm     A         G                 D/F#   Em 
All night long, all night long
                                   G                             A                   G7M 
But you'll be sleeping with the television on

                       A/C#                 Bm       G               D/F#         G 
You say you're looking for someone solid here
                                 D                                   Bm             A                         D 
You can't be bothered with those `just for the night' boys
                         A/C#             Bm   G                     D/F#         G 
Tonight unless you take some kind of chances dear
                             D/F#                       Em                       D/F# 
Tomorrow morning you'll wake up with the white noise
 Bm     A           G             D/F#     Em       G 
All night long, all night long
                                   D/F#                                         Bm                     A       Bm 
You're only standing there 'cause somebody once did
                   A             G 
somebody wrong
 Bm     A         G                 D/F#   Em 
All night long, all night long
                               G                             A                     Bm 
But you'll be sleeping with the television on
                                             D/G       G       D/G       G 
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
                                                           A/B   Bm   A/B   Bm   D/G       G 
But your attitude is "don't waste my time"
                                             D/G       G       D/G       G 
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
                     D/G     G                                           Bm/A                       A 
But you won't hear a word 'cause it just might be the same
       Bm/A             A7 
old line
                       A/C#                 Bm       G               D/F#         G 
This isn't easy for me to say Diane
               D                                   Bm             A                         D 
I know you don't need anybody's protection
                         A/C#             Bm   G                     D/F#         G 
I really wish I was less of a thinking man
                             D/F#                       Em                       D/F# 
And more a fool who's not afraid of rejection
 Bm     A           G             D/F#     Em       G 
All night long, all night long
                                   D/F#                                         Bm                     A       Bm 
I'll just be standing here 'cause I know I don't have the
                   A             G 
guts to come on
 Bm     A         G                 D/F#   Em 
All night long, all night long
                               G                             A                     Bm 
And I'll be sleeping with the television on
                                             D/G       G       D/G       G

                                                                   A/B   Bm   A/B   Bm   D/G       G 
But my attitude is "boy, don't waste your time"
                                             D/G       G       D/G       G 
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
                     D/G     G                                           Bm/A                       A 
But I won't say a word 'cause it just might be somebody
