SHE’S ALWAYS A WOMAN
By: Billy Joel
Key: Eb

-2  -2   -2   3  -3*  3
She can kill with a smile 
-2  -1*   -2    3  -3*  3
She can wound with her eyes 
-3* -3* -3* 4  -5*   4
She can ru-in your faith 
-3*   3* -3* 4 -5*  4
with her cas-u-al lies 
-2  -2  -2 3  -3*  3  
And she on-ly re-veals 
 -2  -1*   -2   3  -3* 3
what she wants you to see 
-2    -2  -1*  3  -2
She hides like a child 
-1*   3   -2 -1*  3 -2 -1* -1-1* 
But she's al-ways a wom-an to me 

-2  -2   -2   3  -3*  3
She can lead you to love 
-2  -1*  -2   3  -3*  3   -1*
She can take you or leave you 
-3* -3* -3*  4  -5*   4
She can ask for the truth 
-3*   3*   -3* 4  -5*  4   -3*
But she'll nev-er be-lieve you 
-2    -2    -2   3   -3*   3  -2
And she'll take what you give her 
-1* -2  3  -3*   3
as long as it's free 
 -2   -2     -2   -1* 3   -2
yeah, she steals like a thief 
-1*   3   -2 -1*  3 -2 -1* -1 -1*
But she's al-ways a wom-an to me 

-5*  5    -5   -5* -6  5   -5
Oh, she takes care of her-self 
-3*  5   -5 -5* -3*   4
She can wait if she wants 
 3*  -3* 4  -3*  3*  -3*
She's a-head of her time 
-6* -5* -6  -6* 7*  -5*  -6 
Oh, and she nev-er gives out 
 5* -5* -6 -6*   5* -5*
And she nev-er gives in 
 5   -5   -5*  -5  4   -3*
She just chang-es her mind 

-2    -2    -2   3  -3*  3
And she’ll prom-ise you more 
 -2  -1* -2   3 -3* 3-2-1*
Than the Gar-den of Ed-en 
 -3*   -3*   -3*   4 -5*  4  -3*
Then she'll care-less-ly cut you 
 3*  -3*    4    -5*     4  -3*
And laugh while you're bleed-in' 
-2    -2     -2   3  -3*   3 
But she'll bring out the best 
-2  -1*   -2   3  -3* 3
And the worst you can be 
  3   3  -2  -1*  3   -2 
Blame it all on your-self 
 -1*    3   -2  -1* 3 -2 -1* -1 -1*  
Cause she's al-ways a wom-an to me 
-2-23-3* 3-2-23-3*3 3
(Hum)       (Hum)

-5*  5    -5   -5* -6  5   -5
Oh, she takes care of her-self 
-3*  5   -5 -5* -3*   4
She can wait if she wants 
 3*  -3* 4  -3*  3*  -3*
She's a-head of her time 
-6* -5* -6  -6* 7*  -5*  -6 
Oh, and she nev-er gives out 
 5* -5* -6 -6*   5* -5*
And she nev-er gives in 
 5   -5   -5*  -5  4   -3*
She just chang-es her mind 

-2  -2 -2    3  -3*  3
She is fre-quent-ly kind 
-2   -1*  -2   3 -3* 3-2-1* 
And she's sud-den-ly cru-el 
-3* -3* -3* 4 -5*   4  -3* 
She can do as she pleas-es 
  3* -3*  4  -5*  4
She's no-bod-y's fool 
-2  -2   -2   3  -3*  3   -2
But she can't be con-vict-ed 
 -1*    -2    3  -3*  3
She's earned her de-gree 
 3   3   4   -3* -3* -3*
And the most she will do 
-3*  -5*   4  -3* 3  -2
Is throw shad-ows at you 
-1*   3   -2  -1* 3 -2 -1* -1 -1*
But she's al-ways a wom-an to me
-2-23-3* 3-23-3* 3
(Hum)      (Hum)
3 4-3*3 4-3*3 -2-1*3 -2-1*-1-1*
