Standard (EADGBE)

I met her in a club down in old Soho where they

drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry

cola C-O-L-A cola

she walked up to me and she asked me to dance

I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said

Lola L-O-L-A Lola Lo lo lo lo Lo - la

Well, we drank champagne and danced all night

Under electric candle light

She picked me up and sat me on her knee

and said "dear boy won't you come home with me?"

Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy,

but when I looked in her eyes, well I almost fell for my

Lola Lo lo lo lo Lo - la Lo lo lo lo Lo - la

Lola Lo lo lo lo Lo - la Lo lo lo lo Lo - la

I pushed her away

I walked to the door

I fell to the floor

I got down on my knees

Then I looked at her and she at me

Well, that's the way that I want it to stay...

(That's enough; you get the idea. Yeah, I know I skipped a verse...)

LOLA- The Kinks

I met her in a club down in old Soho

Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry Cola

C-O-L-A Cola

She walked up to me and she asked me to dance

I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said Lola

L-O-L-A Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well I'm not the world's most physical guy

But when she sqeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine

Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand

Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man

Oh my Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

CHORUS #1:

Well we drank champagne and danced all night

Under electric candlelight

She picked me up and sat me on her knee

And said "Dear boy, won't you come home with me?"

Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy

But when I looked in her eyes well I almost fell for my Lola

La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Bridge

I pushed her away, I walked to the door

I fell to the floor, I got down on my knees

Then I looked at her and she at me

Well that's the way that I want it to stay

And I always want it to be that way for my Lola

La-la-la-la Lola

Girl will be boys and boys will be girls

It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola

La-la-la-la Lola

CHORUS #2:

Well I left home just a week before

And I'd never ever kissed a woman before

But Lola smiled and took me by the hand

And said "Dear boy, I'm gonna make you a man"

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man

But I know what I am and I'm glad that I'm a man

And so is Lola

La-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola

Lola la-la-la-la Lola la-la-la-la Lola
