1...WILD NIGHT... by Van Morrison
Intro
Verse 1
As you brush your shoes, and stand before the mirror.
And you comb your hair, and grab your coat and hat.
And you walk, wet streets, tryin' to re-member.
All the wild night breezes in your mem'ry, ever.
Bridge 1
And ev'ry-thing looks so comp-lete,
When you're walkin' out on the street.
And the wind catches your feet; and sends you flyin', cryin'.
Chorus 1
Ooh..ooh...ooh-wee, the wild night is calling.
Ooh..ooh...ooh-wee, the wild night is calling.
Verse 2
And 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, just stare in wild wonder.
And inside the juke-box roars out, just like thunder.
Bridge 2
And ev'ry-thing looks so comp-lete,
When you're walkin' out on the street.
And the wind catches your feet;
And sends you flyin', cryin'.
Chorus 2
Ooh..ooh...ooh-wee, the wild night is calling.
Ooh..ooh...ooh-wee, the wild night is calling.
Break
Come on out and dance, come on out and make ro-mance.
Come on out and dance, come on out and make ro-mance.
Coda
The wild...night is calling,
The wild...night is calling.
The wild...night is calling,
The wild...night is calling.

(Original Key: )
Intro
Verse 1
Well, you know, some-times, it gets so hard.
And everything, don't seem to rhyme.
I take a walk out in my backyard, and go;
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do,
Waiting for the sun to shine.
Verse 2
Well, you know, some-times, it gets so painful.
Just like talking, to your-self.

No rhyme or reason, we all go;
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do,
Waiting for the sun to shine.
Chorus 1
We move a-long, keep singing our song;
Straight to your heart, like a cannonball.
La la ti da, la la ti da,
La la, la la la, la ti da.

Doo loo loo, loo loo loo loo, loo loo loo, loo.
Doo loo loo, loo loo loo loo, loo loo loo, loo.
Doo loo loo, loo loo loo loo, loo loo loo, loo.
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do,
Waiting for the sun to shine.
Verse 3
Well, you know, every-day,
We hear it through the grapevine.
That's why I'm so tired of hearing it,
Through the grapevine any-more.
Because you hear it through the grapevine,
It's just a dirty rotten, waste of time, we go;
Do do loo do do, do do loo do do,
Waiting for the sun to shine.

We move a-long, keep singing our song;
Straight to your heart, like a cannonball.
