Verse 1:

                  Em
As you brush your shoes,
                     G
And stand before the mirror.
                  Em
And you comb your hair,
                       G
And grab your coat and hat.
        Em
And you walk, wet streets,
             G
Tryin' to re-member.
        C
All the wild night breezes,
D               G
 In your mem'ry ever.

Bridge 1:

          Em                  C
And ev'ry-thing looks so comp-lete,
            Em                 C
When you're walkin' out on the street.
        Em                C
And the wind catches your feet;
              D
And sends you flyin', cryin'.

Chorus 1:

Em
 Oo..oo...oo-wee,
         D        G
The wild night is calling.

Em
 Oo..oo...oo-wee,
         D        G
The wild night is calling.

Verse 2:

            Em
And all the girls walk by,
                    G
Dressed up for each other.
        Em
And the boys do the Boogie-Woogie,
                     G
On the corner of the street.
        Em
And the people passin' by,
                   G
Just stare in wild wonder.
    C
And inside the juke-box,
D                    G
 Roars out just like thunder.

Bridge 2:

          Em                  C
And ev'ry-thing looks so comp-lete,
            Em                 C
When you're walkin' out on the street.
        Em                C
And the wind catches your feet;
              D
And sends you flyin', cryin'.

Chorus 2:

Em
 Oo..oo...oo-wee,
         D        G
The wild night is calling.

Em
 Oo..oo...oo-wee,
         D        G
The wild night is calling.

Break:

                Em
Come on out and dance,
                        G
Come on out and make ro-mance,
                Em
Come on out and dance,
D                        G
 Come on out and make ro-mance.

It gets so hard.
    A          G
And everything,
              D      G  D
Don't seem to rhyme,
A         G
 I take a walk,
          D            Bm
Out in my backyard and go;
Em            A7
 Do do loo do do,

A          G
 Just like talking,
        D    G  D
To your-self.
     A
When everything,
              G
Don't seem to have,
   D                      Bm
No rhyme or reason we all go;
Em            A7
 Do do loo do do,
Em            A7
 Do do loo do do,
G                A      D     G  D

Well you know, every-day,

We hear it through the grapevine.
                  A
That's why I'm so tired,
Of hearing it,
            G             D    G  D
Through the grapevine any-more.

            A
Because you hear it,
            G
Through the grapevine,
            D
It's just a dirty rotten,
         Bm
Waste of time, we go;
Em            A7
 Do do loo do do,
Em            A7
 Do do loo do do,
G                A      D     G  D
 Waiting for the sun to shine.
