Dm
The day is the wife whom I elude.
The one to whom I should be right.
Although forewarned by peers and kin
I always get into the night.

Dm
Mother always warned me such,
Being a nocturnal soul
Besides just being simply strange
Spawns from some illness of the mind.

Chorus:
             D5   /A   /Bb   /E
     But the night, she calls me,
     D5 /A   /Bb   /E
     Hey, she calls me,
     D5 /A   /Bb   /E D5
     Hey, she calls me,
   /A   /F    /E
     She calls me.

         Dm
     She sways in her velvet dress,
     And pulls me towards her
     In the dark
     While the others rest,
     While the others rest,
                      D5 /A
     While the others rest.

Dm
Heed the call the time has come
For all you children of the night,
Gather ‘round like suckling dogs,
Mother’s come, she is the night.

D5  /F   /A /Bb
Come with me to
    Dm         D5 /A | /Bb /E
The other side.
D5  /F  /A   /Bb
Make the girl in
Dm               D5 /A | /Bb /E
Black your bride!

Chorus:
                D5   /A   /Bb   /E

     D5 /A   /Bb   /E
     Hey, she calls me,
     D5 /A   /Bb   /E
     Hey, she calls me,
     D5 /A   /F    /E
     Hey, she calls me.

         Dm
     She sways in her velvet dress,
     And pulls me towards her
     In the dark
     While the others rest,
     While the others rest,
     While the others rest.

   Dm
It still seems very strange to me
That her quiet, lonely streets,
And draped in all her mystery,
Could be so sweet and comforting.

Chorus:
             D5   /A   /Bb   /E
     But the night, she calls me,
     D5 /A   /Bb   /E

         Dm
     She sways in her velvet dress,
     And pulls me towards her
     In the dark.
     While the others rest,
     While the others rest,
     While the others rest.
