 Verse 1:

             Ab             Db6           Ab
         She may not be the best lookin' woman
            Db6     Ab   Db6  Ab  Db6
         I ever did see
              Ab       Db6           Ab
         Nor have the charms of the ladies
            Db6    Ab    Db6  Ab [N.C.]
         Of high society

 Chorus 1:

                             Bbm  Cm  Bbm
         But the woman's got soul
                             Bbm  Cm  Bbm
         Worth all money and gold
                     Bbm          Cm     Db
         And all the love that I have belongs
                Eb          Ab  Db6  Ab  Db6  Ab  Db6  Ab  Db6
         To the woman with soul

 Verse 2:

         Now I'm just a regular fellow
         I don't need much
         I don't need a Cadillac car
         Or diamonds and such

 Chorus 2:

         But the woman that I hold
         She's got to have soul
         And then I'm richer than the richest gold
         If the woman's got soul

 Bridge [bass plays first Ab on each line alone; horns join on other chords]:

                 (Db6)        Ab    Db  Ab [N.C.]
         Well, I don't need a woman
                                    Ab  Db  Ab [N.C.]
         That's got a whole lotta class
                            Ab    Db  Ab [N.C.]
         Because class in a woman
                                 Ab  Db  Ab [N.C.]
         Don't mean she's gonna last
                            Ab    D9  Db9 [N.C.]
         I need the kind of woman
                                       Ab         D9  Db9 [N.C.]
         That when I hold she fits so tight, yeah
                                    Ab     Db  Ab [N.C.]
         Oh, and when she throws it on me
                              Ab [N.C.]
         I give in without a fight       Then I know

 Chorus 3:

         The woman's got soul
         Worth all money and gold
         And then I'm richer than the richest gold
         If the woman's got soul

 Coda [repeat to fade]:

                Db6          Ab   Db6   Ab
         If the woman's got soul
