Evie Part 1 Chords & Tabs
EVIE PT. 1
Covered by THE WRIGHTS
Originally by STEVIE WRIGHT
Tabbed by Mick (msabell@optusnet.com.au)
I haven't seen a good tab for this yet, I tabbed this off a live version of the song
off the radio. I know in the pre-chorus there is more than just chords, there is some
notes in between chords but I haven't figured that out yet, and most of the solo I
haven't done, but the main riff during the solo is cool.

I got myself a coupla tickets
To see a rock n' roll band

C'mon girl let's get on your shoes, we're gonna hear some sounds

Evie, Evie ... let your hair hang down
Verse 2: (play Riff 1 x 2)
You got the body of a woman
The way you move is like a queen
You got the face to raise a riot
And still you're only seventeen

A C
C'mon give it just one try, you know you can't lose

The body of a woman
You nearly make me lose my breath
You know you give me such a feeling
You almost scare me half to death, oww!!

Come on babe you know there aint no time don't mess around (round-round-round-round)
