I Call Your Name

Words & Music by John Lennon & Paul McCartney
Recorded by "Mama Cass" Elliott, 1966


C  Dm7       C       C/B          A
I call your name but you're not there

           F       Fdim     G
Was I to blame for bein' unfair

           Cdim        C
Don't you know I can't sleep at night 

      C/B          A
Since you've been gone

          F           Fdim            C
I never weep at night,     I can't go on.



Bridge: 

(N.C.)                  F
Don't you know I can't take it -

                  Am 
I don't know who can.

               D7
I'm not gonna make it;

                     Dm7 - Cdim(IV) -  G
I'm not that kind of man.



          Cdim         C                   C/B      A
Don't you know I can't sleep at night, but just the same,

         F            Fdim             C
I never weep at night,    I call your name.

(Repeat Bridge)


          Cdim          C                  C/B        A

         F            Fdim             C     C/B    A7
I never weep at night,    I call your name.

                     (N.C.)        F      G#7  Cdim(IV)   C6
I never weep at night,        I call your name  .  .  .  yeah.
