           Em                                    G
    As you brush your shoes and stand before the mirror,
            Em                                 G
    and you comb your hair, grab your coat and hat.
            Em                              G
    And you walk the wet street tryin' to remember,
            C                  D              G
    all the wild night breezes in your mem'ry ever.
              Em               C
    And everything looks so complete,
                Em                  C
    when you're walkin' out on that street.
            Em                C                   D
    And the wind catches your feet, and sends you flyin', cryin'.
    Em     C    D     Em             D        G
    Ooh---------------wee.  The wild night is callin.
    Em     C    D     Em             D        G
    Ooh---------------wee.  The wild night is callin.
                Em                                 G
    And all the girls walk by, dressed up for each other.
            Em                                             G
    And the boys do the boogie-woogie on the corner of the street.
            Em                                   G
    And the people passin' by just stare in wild wonder,
            C              D                   G
    and the jukebox inside roars out just like thunder.
    (Chorus)

             Em                         G
    Well the wil-------------d night is callin'.
        Em                       G
    The wil-----------d night is callin'.
                    Em                     G
    Come on out and dance, come on out and make romance.
                    C     D                       G
    Come on out and dance, come on out and make romance.
    (Chorus)
