Verse:
         B           E             B              E      Esus   E
She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes.
         E7        A         Amaj7       Aadd9   A
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies.
              B                E            B  G#    G#sus
And she only reveals what she wants you to see.
     C#m      C#m/B            A        B        E       Esus  E
She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me.

         B           E             B           E   Esus   E
She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you.
         E7          A                Amaj7       Aadd9        A
She can ask for the truth, but she'll never      believe you.
            B             E           B         G#     G#sus
And she'll take what you give her as long it's free.
 C#m           C#m/B            A        B       E       Esus  E
She steals like a thief, but she's always a woman to me.

Chorus:
Esus  E     C#m   C#m/B  F#    F#sus   F#            B     B/A#   G#m
             Ohh...            she takes care of her self.
         E          A    A/G#   F#m         B            E       Esus  E
She can wait if she wants,        she's    ahead of her time.
     Em     Em7 (4th string) D  A7            A7sus       D     D/C#
And Ohhh……                           and she never gives out,
Bm                  G           C     G/B  A7           F#m         B (high E open)  B
           and she never gives in,            she just changes her mind.

Verse:
                        E              B         E   Esus   E
And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden.
             E7         A           Amaj7              Aadd9    A
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding.
                B                      E           B       G#     G#sus
But she brings out the best and the worst you can be.
          C#m    C#m/B                A        B        E       Esus  E
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a women to me.

Chorus:
Esus  E     C#m   C#m/B  F#    F#sus   F#            B     B/A#   G#m
             Ohh...            she takes care of her self.
         E          A    A/G#   F#m         B            E       Esus  E
She can wait if she wants,        she's    ahead of her time.

           and she never gives in,            she just changes her mind.

Verse:
          B       E              B        E   Esus   E
She's frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel.
         E7        A              Amaj7    Aadd9    A
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool.
         B        E               B           G#     G#sus
But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree.
        C#m           C#m/B       A          E
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,
          F#m     B         E    Esus  E
But she's always a woman to me.

She can wait if she wants,        she's    ahead of her time.
