LOLA - The Kinks   

Intro:   C    D  E

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

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

        E
Well I'm not the worlds most physical guy
             A                            D 
but when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
       E                A   Asus4 A
oh my Lola  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              A      D            C     C D  E
oh my Lola  Lo lo lo lo Lola  Lo lo lo lo Lola

        B
Well we drank champagne and danced all night
F#
under electric candlelight
    A
She picked me up and sat me on her knee
                                   A7
and said 'Dear boy, won't you come home with me'


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


  A      C#m  B        A      C#m    B
I pushed her away    I walked to the door
  A    C#m    B          E    G#m   C#m
I fell to the floor    I got down on my knees
     B
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
E                  A    Asus4 A
Lola   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

        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
                              A7
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    X 3
Lola,  lo lo lo lo Lola,   lo lo lo lo Lola
