              1st VERSE no tempo until the last Eb   
 
        Bb          Eb             Bb             Eb (pause)   
She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes     
        Eb        Ab         Abmaj7       Ab6    Abmaj7      
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies     
        Bb     Eb             Bb           G  (pause)   
And she only reveals what she wants you to see     
    Cm           Cm/Bb            Ab       Bb7       Eb (tempo)    
She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me   
Ebsus  Eb  
    
VERSE   
        Bb          Eb            Bb          Eb    
She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you     
        Eb          Ab          Abmaj7        Ab6    Abmaj7   
She can ask for the truth, but she'll never believe     
           Bb            Eb          Bb        G   
And she'll take what you give her as long it's free     
    Cm            Cm/Bb            Ab       Bb       Eb   
She steals like a thief, but she's always a woman to me     
Ebsus  Eb   Eb/D    
 
  
Cm  Cm/Bb F7/A        F7          Bb   Bb/A   Gm     
Ohhh...     she takes care of herself.     
        Eb          Ab  Ab/G Fm       Bb7          Eb  Ab/Eb Eb

Ebm  F#/C# Ab/C       Ab          C#   C#/C Bbm   
Ohhh...       and she never gives out,     
        Gb6      B B/Bb F7/A       F           Bb Bb6 Bb7   
and she never gives in,      she just changes her mind.   
 
VERSE   
           Bb6         Eb            Bb        Eb    
And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden     
            Eb7         Ab          Abmaj7               Ab6   Abmaj7   
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding.     
           Bb7        Eb           Bb7           G   
But she bring out the best and the worst you can be     
         Cm         Cm/Bb             Ab       Bb7      Eb   
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a women to me.

and she never gives in,      she just changes her mind.   
 
VERSE     
 
      Bb6        Eb             Bb       Eb   
She's frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel.   
        Eb        Ab       Abmaj7           Ab6   Abmaj7   
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool.     
        Bb          Eb            Bb7           G   
But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree.    
        Cm            Cm/Bb       Ab         Eb/G     
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,    
          Fm       Bb7      Eb Ebsus4 Eb    
but she's always a woman to me
