Tab

Song in Bb.  Use an E harp to play 2nd position.

I put a few extra notes in here to give a little more bounce to the melody.  
Omit them if you want.  Throw some doublestops in there somewhere!  Turn
your amp up!
Check out this karaoke! You can even change the key of the
karaoke, in case you need/want to play in another key.

Ooh, I got a strange kind of wo- man

She looked like a raver
But I could never please her
On Wednesday mornings boy you can't go far
I couldn't get her
But things got better--she said
Saturday nights from now on baby you're my star

She finally said she loved me
I wed her in a hurry
No more callers and I glowed with pride
I'm dreaming
I feel like screaming
I won my woman just before she died

I want you I need you I gotta be near you
I spent my money as I took my turn
I want you I need you I gotta be near you
Ooh I had a strange kind of woman
