Maneater by Hall & Oates - Guitar Chords

<< Back to Hall & Oates Song List

Version 1 Version 3 Version 5

            Maneater by Hall And Oates
Key is B minor / D major
Capo on 2nd fret
Tabbed by Kellie G. (autobahn)

This is a beautiful acoustic version.  
It's pretty novice (you'll need to practice your barre Bb, but the rest is in open chords 
(if you're new to guitar, don't be afraid of the sharps and flats!)  
For intermediate players, if you'd like to jazz it up, 
it's possible to substitute F with Fmaj7 and D with Dmin7.  
The length of intro, instrumental and coda is up to you.  
This song was Hall and Oates longest-staying number 1 hit around the world. Enjoy!

C
She'll only come out at night

So many have paid to see
G
What you think you're gettin' for free
    Bb                                    A
The woman is wild, a she-cat tamed by the purr of a Jaguar
Dm
Money's the matter
          G                   G#dim                  Am     (G A)

Mind over matter
        G                      G#dim              Am       (G A)
