Intro:

Riff 1

Ive been trying to show you over and over
(palm-muted)
                      
Look at these my child-bearing hips
                      
Look at these my ruby red ruby lips
                         
Look at these my work strong arms and
                            
Youve got to see my bottle full of charm
                 
I lay it all at your feet
                     
You turn around and say back to me

He said
(palm-mute stops)
                      
Sheela-na-gig, sheela-na-gig
              
You exhibitionist
                      
Sheela-na-gig, sheela-na-gig
              
You exhibitionist
(palm-muted)
                         
Gonna wash that man right out of my hair
                         
Just like the first time he said he didn't care
                         
Gonna wash that man right out of my hair
                
Heard it before, no more
                         
Gonna wash that man right out of my hair
               
Turn the corner another one there
                         
Gonna wash that man right out of my hair

Heard it before

He said
(palm-mute stops)
                      
Sheela-na-gig, sheela-na-gig
              
You exhibitionist
                      
Sheela-na-gig, sheela-na-gig
              
You exhibitionist
                
Put money in your idle hole

   

                
Put money in your idle hole
