VERSE
Fm7
Her name was Lola
Ab/Bb Ebmaj7
She was a showgirl
Am7-5 D7
With yellow feathers in her hair
Gm7

And do the cha-cha

And while she tried to be a star
Gm7
Tony always tended bar

VERSE
Fm7
His name was Rico
Ab/Bb Ebmaj7
He wore a diamond
Am7-5 D7
He was escorted to his chair
Gm7
He saw Lola dancing there
Fm7
And when she finished
Ab/Bb Ebmaj7
He called her over
Am7-5 D7
But Rico went a bit too far
Gm7
Tony sailed across the bar
BRIDGE

And then the pun -ches flew
Cdim D7 Gm
And chairs were smashed in two
Cm D7
There was blood and a single gunshot
Gm7 F#aug Fm6
But just who shot who?

VERSE
Fm7
Her name is Lola
Ab/Bb Ebmaj7
She was a showgirl
Am7-5 D7
But that was thirty years ago
Gm7
When they used to have a show
Fm7
Now it's a disco
Ab/Bb Ebmaj7
But not for Lola
Am7-5 D7
Still in the dress she used to wear
Gm7
Faded feathers in her hair
BRIDGE
Cdim D7 Gm
She sits there so re-fined
Cdim D7 Gm
And drinks herself half-blind
Cm D7
She lost her youth and she lost her Tony
Gm7 F#aug Fm6
Now she's lost her mind
