***Song begins

C    D  E

** Verse 1: (bass note, then cascade e-g-b strings)

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

***Verse 2 (strum chords):

     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


***Verse 3 (strum chords):

      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   [play FILL 1]

*** Chorus 1

        B
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

***Bridge:

  A      C#m  B
I pushed her away
  A      C#m    B
I walked to the door
  A    C#m    B
I fell to the floor
  E    G#m   C#m
I got down on my knees
     B
Then I looked at her and she at me


***VERSE 4: (fingerpicking)
    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


***Chorus 2 (strum chords):
        B
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'


***Verse 5 (strum chords):

        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
and so is Lola, lo lo lo lo lola
    C     C D
Lo lo lo lo Lola

Outro:
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
