Capo 4
[C]I told Mary about us, I told her about our great [G]sin.
[G7]Mary cried and forgave me, and Mary took me back a[C]gain.
Said if I wanted my freedom, I could be free ever[F]more.
But I don't wanna be, [C]and I don't wanna se[G7]e, Mary cry a[C]nymore.
CHORUS:
Oh[G], devil woman, [G7]devil woman let [C]go of me.[C7]
Devil woman, [G]let me be, and l[G7]eave me alone, I wa[C]nna go home.
#2.
[C]Mary is waitin' and weepin', down in our shack by the[G] sea.[G7]
Even after I've hurt her, Mary's still in love with [C]me.
Devil woman it's over, I'm trapped no more by your [F]charms.
Cause I don't wanna stay, [C]I wanna get away, [G]woman let g[G7]o of my ar[C]m.
CHORUS:
Oh[G], devil woman, [G7]devil woman let [C]go of me.[C7]
Devil woman, [G]let me be, and l[G7]eave me alone, I wa[C]nna go home.
#3.
[C]Devil woman you're evil, like the dark coral reef[G].
L[G7]ike the winds that bring high tides, you bring sorrow and gr[C]ief.
You made me ashamed to face Mary, I[C7] barely had the strength to t[F]ell
Skies are not so black, [C]Mary to[C7]ok me back, Ma[G]ry has br[G7]oken your sp[C]ell.
CHORUS:
Oh[G], devil woman, [G7]devil woman let [C]go of me.[C7]
Devil woman, [G]let me be, and l[G7]eave me alone, I wa[C]nna go home.
#4.
[C]Running along by the seashore, running as fast as I [G]can.
E[G7]ven the seagulls are happy, glad I'm coming home aga[C]in.
Never again will I ever, c[C7]ause another tear to fa[F]ll..
Down the beach I see,[C] what b[C7]elongs to me, [G]the one I[G7] want most o[C]f all.
CHORUS:
Oh[G], devil woman, [G7]devil woman let [C]go of me.[C7]
Devil woman, [G]let me be, and l[G7]eave me alone, I?m [C]going back home.
There is a You Tube performance of Marty Robbins performing this song. http://
youtu.be/eT88zD912Xo You can see his fourth finger rests pretty steadily on the
3rd fret(realitive to the capo) on the E(6) string for a high G. He strums with
his thumb and picks that high G. Sounds really nice.
