Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress Uke tab by The Hollies

E
Saturday night I was downtown
G                 A   E
Working for the F.B.I.
 (E)
Sitting in a nest of bad men
G                  A      E
Whiskey bottles piling high
(E)
Bootlegging boozer on the West Side
          G             A      E
Full of people who are doing wrong
(E)
Just about to call up the D.A. man
     G                  A      E
When I heard this woman sing a song

   A
A pair of 45s made me open my eyes
    B
My temperature started to rise
       A
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
    G            E
Just-a 5'9, beautiful, tall
  A
With just one look I was a bad mess
         G               E
'Cause that long cool woman had it all

Bridge 
    
E
I saw her head up the table
      G                 A       E
Well, a tall walking big black cat
      (E)
When Charlie said I hope that you're able boy
 G                             A          E
Well, I'm telling you she knows where it's at
    (E)
Then suddenly we heard the sirens
     G           A     E
And everybody started to run
   (E)
A-jumping out of doors and tables
   G                     A       E
When I heard somebody shooting a gun

   (E)
Well, the D.A. was pumping my left hand
    G                A        E
And a-she was a-holding my right
    (E)
Well I told her don't get scared
         G
'Cause you're gonna be spared
      A
I've gotta be forgiving if I wanna spend my living
       (A)
With a long cool woman in a black dress
    G           E
Just a 5'9 beautiful tall
         A
Yeah, with just one look I was a bad mess
        G               E
'Cause that long cool woman had it all
       (E)
Had it all...
       (E)
Had it all...Had it all
