I Call Your Name --- Lennon/McCartney

 

I [C]call your name, but you’re not [A7]there.

Was I to [Dm]blame for being un-[G]fair? [G7]

Don’t you know I can’t [C]sleep at night

Since you’ve been [A7]gone?

I never [Dm]weep at night. [G7]I can’t go [C]on.

 

[C]Don’t you know I can’t [F]take it,

I don’t know who [Am]can.

I’m not gonna [D7]make it.

I’m not that kind of [Fm]man. [G7]

 

Don’t you know I can’t [C]sleep at night?

But just the [A7]same,

I never [Dm]weep at night. [G7]I call your [C]name.

 

[C]Don’t you know I can’t [F]take it,

I don’t know who [Am]can.

I’m not gonna [D7]make it.

I’m not that kind of [Fm]man. [G7]

 

Don’t you know I can’t [C]sleep at night?

But just the [A7]same,

I never [Dm]weep at night. [G7]I call your [C]name.

I never [Dm]weep at night. I [Fm]call your [C]name.

 

Yeah, it's a Beatles song, but I always hear Mama Cass Elliot's voice in my mind.
