Lola
by
The Kinks

C  D E

 E
I met her in a club down in old Soho
     A           D           E
where you drink champagne and it tastes just like coca cola
     A  Asus4 A
C-O-L-A, cola

  E
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
 A              D             E
I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola
     A  D       C  C D E
L-O-L-A, Lola, Lo lo lo lo lola

   E
Well I’m not the worlds most physical guy
       A
but when she squeezed me tight
      D           E
she nearly broke my spine, oh my Lola
      A  Asus4 A
Lo lo lo lo Lola
   E
Well I’m not dumb but I can’t understand
    A            D
why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
   E
oh my Lola
      A  D       C  C D E
Lo lo lo lo Lola  Lo lo lo lo Lola

    B7
Well we drank champagne and danced all night
F#
under electric candlelight
  A
She picked me up and sat me on her knee

and said ’Dear boy, won’t you come home with me’

   E
Well I’m not the world’s most passionate guy
      A             D         E
but when I looked in her eye, well I almost fell for my Lola
      A  D      C  C D
Lo lo lo lo Lola Lo lo lo lo Lola
E         A  D       C  C D  E
Lola, Lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola

 A   E  B7
I pushed her away
 A   E   B7
I walked to the door


 A  E   B7
I fell to the floor
   E  G#m  C#m
I got down on my knees
   B7
Then I looked at her and she at me

   E
Well that’s the way that I want it to stay
   A         D         E
and I always want it to be that way for my Lola
      A  Asus4 A
Lo lo lo lo Lola
E
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
    A           D             E
It’s a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world except for Lola
      A
Lo lo lo lo Lola

    B7
Well I left home just a week before
  F#
And I’d never ever kissed a woman before
A
Lola smiled and took me by the hand

and said ’dear boy, I’m gonna make you a man’

   E
Well I’m not the worlds most passionate man
   A           D
but I know what I am and I’m glad I’m a man
     E         A  D       C  C D
and so is Lola, lo lo lo lo lola  Lo lo lo lo Lola

E         A  D       C  C D
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
E         A  D       C  C D
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
E         A  D       C  C D E
Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola,  o lo lo lo Lola
