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.
