INTRO: [*R1 x2] // [E]

VERSE 1:
[E] Saturday night I was downtown
[G] Working for the [A] F.B.-[E]-I.
[E] Sitting in a nest of bad men
[G] Whiskey bottles [A] piling [E] high

VERSE 2:
[E] Bootlegging boozer on the West Side
Full of [G] people who are [A] doing [E] wrong
[E] Just about to call up the D.A. man
When I [G] heard this woman [A] sing a [E] song

PRE-CHORUS:
A [A] pair of 45's made me open my eyes
My [B] temperature started to rise

CHORUS:
She was a [A] long cool woman in a black dress
Just-a [G] 5'9, [A] beautiful, [E] tall
With [A] just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that [G] long cool [A] woman had it [E] all

GUITAR BREAK: [E]

VERSE 3:
[E] I saw her head up the table
With a [G] tall walking [A] big black [E] cat
When [E] Charlie said I hope that you're able boy
Well, I'm [G] telling you she [A] knows where it's [E] at

VERSE 4:
Then [E] suddenly we heard the sirens
And [G] everybody [A] started to [E] run
A-[E]-jumping out of doors and tables
When I [G] heard somebody [A] shooting a [E] gun

VERSE 5:
Well, the [E] D.A. was pumping my left hand
And a [G] she was a-[A]-holding my [E] right
Well I [E] told her don't get scared
'Cause you're [G] gonna be spared
I've [A] gotta be forgiving if I wanna spend my living

CHORUS:
With a [A] long cool woman in a black dress
Just a [G] 5'9, [A] beautiful [E] tall
Yeah, with [A] just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that [G] long cool [A] woman had it [E] all

OUTRO:
Had it [E] all, had it all
Had it [E] all, had it all
Had it [E] all, had it all
