Verse 1:

        [E]Saturday night I was downtown
        [G]Working for the [A]F.B.[E]I.
        S[E]itting in a nest of bad men
        [G]Whiskey bottles p[A]iling h[E]igh
        [E]Bootlegging boozer on the West Side
        Full of pe[G]ople who are d[A]oing wr[E]ong
        [E]Just about to call up the D.A. man
        When I h[G]eard this woman s[A]ing a s[E]ong
        A p[A]air of 45s made me open my eyes
        My t[B]emperature started to rise
        She was a l[A]ong cool woman in a black dress
        Just-a [G]5'9, beautiful, t[E]all
        With j[A]ust one look I was a bad mess
        'Cause that l[G]ong cool woman had it a[E]ll

Verse 2:
        [E]I saw her head up the table
        Well, a t[G]all walking b[A]ig black c[E]at
        When C[E]harlie said I hope that you're able boy
        Well, I'm t[G]elling you she k[A]nows where it's [E]at
        Then s[E]uddenly we heard the sirens
        And e[G]verybody st[A]arted to [E]run
        A-j[E]umping out of doors and tables
        When I he[G]ard somebody s[A]hooting a g[E]un
        Well, the [E]D.A. was pumping my left hand
        And a-s[G]he was a-ho[A]lding my ri[E]ght
        Well I [E]told her don't get scared
        'Cause you're go[G]nna be spared
        I've g[A]otta be forgiving if I wanna spend my living
        With a [A]long cool woman in a black dress
        Just a [G]5'9 beautiful t[E]all
        Yeah, with j[A]ust one look I was a bad mess
        'Cause that l[G]ong cool woman had it a[E]ll
Coda (over main riff):
        Had it [E]all...           [repeat to fade]
