Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Were you vague with information?
Or your memory selective?
All my tried and tested methods
rendered ineffective.
A [G]detective needs his criminal.
A [A]hero needs [G]his vil[Bm]lain.
But to me, [A]you will [G]always
[D]be [G]the [Em]woman[A]
[Dm]You'[D]re a well -known a[Bm]dventu[D]rist,
I needed your corrective
I hadn't been wrong for so long,
till you put things in perspective
A detect[G]ive needs a case to solve,
a [A]hero needs his villain
[Bm]But to me, you w[A]ill alwa[G]ys
[D]be [G]the[Em] wom[D]an
Yeah, the [A]grit in my instrument,
the crack in [Bm]my lens
Most de[G]sired of [D]all my [G]en emies,
most ad[A]mired of all my [D]friends
You eclipse the whole of your sex,
oh well, that's me being objective
I'll sit and practice my guitar,
await your next dir[Dm]ect i[D]ve
A [Dm]detect[G] ive needs some clues,
some signs
a [A]hero needs his [Bm]vil lain,
but to me, [G]you [A]will alw[G]ays be[D]
[G]the[Em] woma[A]n.
[G]A s[D]candal in Bohemia,
a [G]handle retro[D]spective.
I gave you gifts for Christmas,
you rejected as defective.
A [G]detective needs to work out
who's the [A]hero, who's the vil[Bm]lain.
But to me, [A]you will [G]always
[D]be [G]the [Em]woman[A].
[D]You're the gri[A]d in my instrument,
the crack in my [Bm]lens.
Most ad[G]mired of [D]all my [G]enemies,
most de[A]sired of all my [D]friends.
Good night, good night, good night
Irene, I treasure your invective.
Your photo [Bm]on my[D] mantelpiece
has also been effective.
A [G]detective needs his criminal,
a [A]hero need[G]s his villain.
[Bm]But to me, you will [A]alwa[G]ys be[D][G]
[Em]Thee, wo[A]man
[G]The[Bm]e, wo[A]ma[G]n[Em]
