Lola
The Kinks
Intro: | C D | E |
E
I met her in a club down in old Soho
A D E A Asus4 A
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just 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 D E
L-O-L-A Lola la-la-la-la Lola
E
Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy
A D E A
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine, oh my Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
E
Well, I'm not dumb, but I can't understand
A D E
Why she walked like a woman but talked like a man, oh my Lola
A D C D E
La-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
B F#
Well we drank champagne and danced all night 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 eyes, well I almost fell for my Lola
A D C D
La-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
E A D C D E
Lola, la-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
A E B A E B
I pushed her away, I walked to the door
A E 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 A Asus4 A
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
E
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
A D E A
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world except for Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
B F#
Well I left home just a week before and I'd never, ever kissed a woman before
A
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand and said "Little boy, I'm gonna make you a man"
E
Well, I'm not the world's most masculine man
A D E
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man but so is Lola
A D C D
La-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola
E A D C D
Lola, la-la-la-la Lola, la-la-la-la Lola (repeat and fade)
