E                                                B7
I told Mary about us, I told her about our great sin
                                                  E
Mary cried and forgave me, and Mary took me back again
                             E7                  A
Said if I wanted my freedom, I could be free evermore
                      E                      B7          E
But I don't wanna be, and I don't wanna see, Mary cry anymore


[Chorus]
E         B7                 E
Oh, devil woman, devil woman let go of me
             B7                               E
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I wanna go home


[Verse 2]
E                                                     B7
Mary is waitin' and weepin', down in our shack by the sea
                                                    E
Even after I've hurt her, Mary's still in love with me
                       E7                      A
Devil woman it's over, trapped no more by your charms
                          E                  B7                 E
Cause I don't wanna stay,  I wanna get away, woman let go of my arm


[Chorus]
E         B7                 E
Oh, devil woman, devil woman let go of me
             B7                               E
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I wanna go home


[Verse 3]
E                                            B7
Devil woman you're evil, like the dark coral reef
                                                           E
Like the winds that bring high tides, you bring sorrow and grief
                                  E7                         A
You made me ashamed to face Mary, barely had the strength to tell
                        E                  B7                   E
Skies are not so black, Mary took me back, Mary has broken your spell


[Chorus]
E         B7                 E
Oh, devil woman, devil woman let go of me
             B7                               E
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I wanna go home


[Verse 4]
E                                                   B7
Running along by the seashore, running as fast as I can
                                                   E
Even the seagulls are happy, glad I'm coming home again
                         E7                    A
Never again will I ever, cause another tear to fall
                      E                  B7                       E
Down the beach I see, what belongs to me,  the one I want most of all


[Chorus]
E         B7                 E
Oh, devil woman, devil woman don't follow me
             B7                                 E
Devil woman, let me be, and leave me alone, I'm goin' back home
