    THE BEATLES - SHE'S A WOMAN  (Lennon/McCartney) First 
                  released on November 27th 1964 as the B 
                  side of the I FEEL FINE single.

    Bass tab by:PJVillanueva





    With a deceptive guitar start on the off beat and the 
    leading role of the bass, which makes the rest of the 
    instruments seem odd at times with its tonic placings,
    this song is the first of many experiments that soon
    would come (time signature changes, new sounds, higher
    bass mixes, etc.) As in the case of LONG TALL SALLY and 
    I'M DOWN, Paul's high register hoarse singing makes him 
    sound like a black soul hawker. The cool sliding guitar 
    solo and the swinging pulse of the song give it a great 
    feel we'll soon hear again in ANOTHER GIRL.
    
     




  My love don't give me presents            
  I know that she's no peasant
 
  Only ever has to give me
  love forever and forever
   
  My love don't give me presents
   
  Turn me on when I get lonely 
  People tell me that she's only foolin'   
  I know she isn't

  
  She don't give boys the eye             
  She hates to see me cry
    
  She is happy just to hear me
  Say that I will never leave her
  
  She don't give boys the eye
                    
  She will never make me jealous    
  Give me all the time as well as lovin'      
  Don't ask me why

   
  She's a woman who understands     
  She's a woman who loves her man

   
  My love don't give me presents              
  I know that she's no peasant
    
  Only ever has to give me
  Love forever and forever
 
  My love don't give me presents
              
  Turn me on when I get lonely   
  People tell me that she's only foolin'     
  I know she isn't


              SOLO


  My love don't give me presents

  Turn me on when I get lonely   
  People tell me that she's only foolin'

  She's a woman She's a woman
