[Verse 1]
E
Saturday night I was down town
G               A     E
Working for the F.B.I.
Sitting in a nest of bad men
    G           A          E
Whiskey bottles piling high
Boot legging boozer on the west side
           G           A          E
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the D.A. man
            G           A              E
When I heard this woman singing a song.

[Chorus]
  A
A pair of forty fives made me open my eyes
   B
My temperature started to rise
          A
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
           G
Just a five nine
Beautiful
    E
Tall
     A
With just one look I was a bad mess
               G                  E   E
Cause that long cool woman had it all.

[Verse 2]
E
Saw her heading to the table
           G           A         E
Well a tall walking big black cat
When Charlie said "I hope that you're able
Boy"
Well
       G                 A             E
I'm telling you she knows where it's at
Well suddenly we heard a siren
    G         A             E
And everybody started to run
A jumping out of doors and tables
            G         A              E
Well I heard somebody shooting a gun.
Well the D.A. was pumping my left hand
         G         A   E
And a she a holding my right
And I told her don't get scared

[Chorus]
             G
Cause you're gonna be spared
  A
I gotta be forgiven
If I want to spend my living with
A long cool woman in a black dress
           G
Just a five nine
Beautiful
    E
Tall
         A
With just one look I was a bad mess
                G                  E
'Cause that long cool woman had it all
Had it all
          E
Had it all

[Outro]
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all

[Fade Out]
