C                                                G
I told Mary about us, I told her about our great sin.

                                                  C
Mary cried and forgave me, and Mary took me back again.

                                                 F
Said if I wanted my freedom, I could be free evermore.

                      C                      G           C
But I don't wanna be, and I don't wanna see, Mary cry anymore.
CHORUS:
C         G                  C
Oh, devil woman, devil woman let go of me.

             G                                C
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I wanna go home.

C                                                     G
Mary is waitin' and weepin', down in our shack by the sea.

                                                    C
Even after I've hurt her, Mary's still in love with me.

                                                   F
Devil woman it's over, I'm trapped no more by your charms.

                          C                 G                  C
Cause I don't wanna stay, I wanna get away, woman let go of my arm.
CHORUS:
C         G                  C
Oh, devil woman, devil woman let go of me.

             G                                C
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I wanna go home.

C                                            G
Devil woman you're evil, like the dark coral reef.

                                                           C
Like the winds that bring high tides, you bring sorrow and grief.

                                                               F
You made me ashamed to face Mary, I barely had the strength to tell..

                        C                  G                    C
Skies are not so black, Mary took me back, Mary has broken your spell.
CHORUS:
C         G                  C
Oh, devil woman, devil woman let go of me.

             G                                C
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I wanna go home.

C                                                   G
Running along by the seashore, running as fast as I can.

                                                   C
Even the seagulls are happy, glad I'm coming home again.

                                               F
Never again will I ever, cause another tear to fall..

                      C                   G                      C
Down the beach I see, what belongs to me, the one I want most of all.
CHORUS:
C         G                  C
Oh, devil woman, devil woman don't follow me.

             G                                  C
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I'm goin' back home.
