	/ / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

Verse 1:

	    Ab             Db6           Ab
	She may not be the best lookin' woman
	   Db6     Ab   Db6  Ab  Db6
	I ever did see
	     Ab       Db6           Ab
	Nor have the charms of the ladies
	   Db6    Ab    Db6  Ab [N.C.]
	Of high society

Chorus 1:

	                    Bbm  Cm  Bbm
	But the woman's got soul
	                    Bbm  Cm  Bbm
	Worth all money and gold
	            Bbm          Cm     Db
	And all the love that I have belongs
	       Eb          Ab  Db6  Ab  Db6  Ab  Db6  Ab  Db6
	To the woman with soul

Verse 2:

	Now I'm just a regular fellow
	I don't need much
	I don't need a Cadillac car
	Or diamonds and such

Chorus 2:

	But the woman that I hold
	She's got to have soul
	And then I'm richer than the richest gold
	If the woman's got soul

Bridge [bass plays first Ab on each line alone; horns join on other chords]:

	        (Db6)        Ab    Db  Ab [N.C.]
	Well, I don't need a woman
	                           Ab  Db  Ab [N.C.]
	That's got a whole lotta class
	                   Ab    Db  Ab [N.C.]
	Because class in a woman
	                        Ab  Db  Ab [N.C.]
	Don't mean she's gonna last
	                   Ab    D9  Db9 [N.C.]
	I need the kind of woman
	                              Ab         D9  Db9 [N.C.]
	That when I hold she fits so tight, yeah
	                           Ab     Db  Ab [N.C.]
	Oh, and when she throws it on me
	                     Ab [N.C.]
	I give in without a fight       Then I know

Chorus 3:

	The woman's got soul
	Worth all money and gold
	And then I'm richer than the richest gold
	If the woman's got soul

Coda [repeat to fade]:

	       Db6          Ab   Db6   Ab
	If the woman's got soul
