Intro: Em   G  (rpt)  (G’s can alt with G6)

Em                                                                        G

Then you brush your shoes, smile before the mirror

                  Em                                                                           G

And you comb your hair, grab your coat and your hat

Em                                                                         G                 Em

And you walk west streets trying to remember

              C                                                  D                      G   C G

All the wild night breezes in your memory ever

                    Em                                 C

And everything looks so complete

                           Em                               C

When you're walking out on the street

                 Em                                C                                     D           D7

And the wind catches your feet and sends you flying, crying

Em      C         D        Em     C    D              G           C G    

ooo ooo   ooo   wee, wild night is calling

Em      C         D        Em     C    D              G           C G    

ooo ooo   ooo   wee, wild night is calling

All the girls walk by, dressed up for each other

And the boys do the boogie woogie on the corner of the street

And the people passin' by stare in wide wonder

And the inside jukebox blows out just like thunder

Chorus

The wi--------ld night is calling

The wi--------ld night is calling

I'm going out and dance, come on out and make romance

Come on out and dance, come on out, make romance (yes indeed)

Solo over first two lines of verse then repeat last verse
