LOLA (Best Ever Live Version)

NOTE: I've changed this one a little to make it easier.
      It is a very hard song at some places but well worth it.

Lyrics and music are superb!

VERSE 1:

E
I met her in a club down in old Soho
            A                      D                      E
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola,
          A
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, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

VERSE 2:

Well I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine, oh my Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walks like a woman but talks like a man, oh my Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

CHORUS 1:

B
Well we drank champagne and danced all night
F#m
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"

VERSE 3:

Well I'm not the world's most passionate guy
But when I looked in her eyes I almost fell for my Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola,
Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

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

VERSE 4:

Well that's the way that I want it to stay
I always want it to be that way for my Lola,
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world except for Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

CHORUS 2:

Well I left home just a week before
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

VERSE 5:

Now 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
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola,
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola,
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola...........


That's it complete with ALL the lyrics
