Subject: Evil woman by ELO
EVIL WOMAN (by ELO)
(C7) You made a fool of me, (F7)but them broken dreams have got to (C)end
(Am)Hey woman(Em), you got(Dm7) the blues
(Em)Cos' you ain't (Am)got no(Em)one else (Dm7)to use
(Em)There's an (Am)open road(Em) that leads(Dm7) nowhere
(Em)So just (Am)make some miles(Em) between (Dm7)here and there
(Em)There's a (Am)hole in my (Em)head where the (Dm7)rain comes in
(Em) You (Am) took my (Em)body and (Dm7)played to win
(Em) Ha(Am) Ha (Em)woman it's a (Dm7)cryin' shame
(Em)But you (Fmaj7)ain't got (G)nobody else to (C)blame
CHORUS: (Am-) Evil(Em) Woman (Dm7) (-Em) } 4x
Rolled in from another town
Hit some gold too hot to settle down
But a fool and his money soon go separate ways
And you found a fool lyin' in a daze
Ha Ha woman what you gonna do
You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you
It's so good that you're feelin' pain
But you better get your face on board the very next train
- CHORUS
Evil woman how you done me wrong
But now you're tryin' to wail a different song
Ha Ha funny how you broke me up
You made the wine now you drink the cup
I came runnin' every time you cried
Thought I saw love smilin' in your eyes
Ha Ha woman very nice to know
That you ain't got no place left to go
1. Hello ELO-friends! This is how I play Evil Woman. The song is written by
Jeff Lynne and appears on the album Face the Music. In this guitar
arrangement it can sound real funky. Enjoy!
2. This version: 19-nov'97.
Improvements and suggestions welcome!

| Just a point of interest: the string crescendo about 3/4 of the way through the song (just before the final verse) is a backwards-tracked version of the strings from the song "Nightrider." Both songs originally appeared on the album "Face the Music." | |

| In 2006, "Face the Music" was re-released, with several bonus tracks, including a different, "Stripped Down Mix" version of "Evil Woman". That version includes a fourth verse: Hang out for just a while And I'll tell you a story that'll make you smile 'Bout a dark-eyed woman with a Cadillac But all she had was on her back Well, a fool rushed in, and thought he saw Just the kind of woman that he'd adore She lay beside him and turned on her charms But this devil's woman sure knows how to do you wrong | |

| This song is about how a girl treats the boy she likes like he doesn't exist. Therefore the boy thinks she is an Evil Woman hence the name of the song. It's happend to me many times. | |
