Chorus: 

A7 
A pair of 45s made me open my eyes 
     G 
My temperature started to rise 
            E                    G 
She was a long cool woman in a black dress 
       A             E 
Just a 5'9 beautiful tall 
                           E 
With just one look I was a bad mess 
            A                       E 
'Cause that long cool woman had it all

Well I told her don't get scared 
               G 
'Cause you're gonna be spared

Well I'm gonna be forgiving

If I wanna spend my living 
       E                    G 
With a long cool woman in a black dress
