            E
I knew the moment
I walked through that door
I felt so close to a burning sensation
It got so warm
As I moved across the floor
My body aching with anticipation
I saw a dark silhouette, at the table
I tried to talk, but I was unable
She drew me in right under her spell
I was hypnotized by the sudden temptation

Chorus:
        C#m                    G#m
Of that woman in black she's a mystery
  B                C#m
She's everything a woman should be
C#m                        G#m
Woman in black she's got a hold on me
  B                        C#m
She's in control she won't set me free

She is a woman
She's not a girl anymore
The kind that stirs up a young man's imagination
She's dressed to kill
And I'm so ready to fall
Into her world full of strange fascination
I saw a dark silhouette, at the table
I tried to talk, but I was unable
She drew me in right under her spell
I was hypnotized by the sudden temptation

Chorus

C#m G#m
Ooh woman in black
      B
It's too late now
  C#m
I can't turn back
            C#m
Cause I'm a fool for that woman
G#m
Woman in black
B       C#m
Ooh ooh woman in black

Chorus

She's my mysterious mistress
But she leaves me so helpless
My woman in black
She's a dark senorita
My woman in black
No Sunday school teacher
My woman in black
We're keeping it a secret
We meet in the night
We're partners in silence
Strangers in daylight
