Standard (EADGBE)

The night gang started working

Laid a mile of solid road

As I watched, I got to thinking

 You ain't never coming home.

 I looked out into nowhere

There was nobody at all

 To get me help, to get me to you

 I'm here making night calls.

Chorus

Night calls, making night calls

Night calls, making night calls.

I have, I have tried so hard to reach you

But you must be moving fast

All my hopes about the future

 They'll just move on into the past.

You know it just ain't easy

As the twilight starts to fade

 Sitting here on a chair I'm wondering

 Thinking of the plans we made.

To CHORUS
