[Verse 1]
Her name was [Dm]Lo la[G], she was a sh[C]owgirl
With yellow [Am]feathers in her [B]hair
and a [Em]dress cut down to there
She would me[Dm]rengue [G]and do the cha[C]-cha
And while she [Am]tried to be a [B]star
Tony [Em]always tended bar
Across the [Am]crowd[B]ed f[Em]loor,
they worked from [Am]eight [B]til [Em]four
They were [Am]young and they had each oth[B]er
Who could [Em]ask for more?

His name was [Dm]Rico[G]
He wore a [C]diamond
He was es[Am]corted to his [B]chair,
he saw [Em]Lola dancing there
And when she [Dm]finished,[G]
he called her [C]over
But Rico [Am]went a bit too [B]far
Tony [Em]sailed across the bar
And then the [Am]pun c[B]hes [Em]flew
and chairs were [Am]smashed [B]in [Em]two
There was [Am]blood and a single gun [B]shot
But just [Em]who shot who?

Her name is [Dm]Lola, [G]she was a sho[C]wgirl
But that was [Am]thirty years a[B]go,
when they [Em]used to have a show
Now it's a [Dm]disco, [G]but not for Lol[C]a
Still in the [Am]dress she used to [B]wear
Faded [Em]feathers in her hair
She sits there [Am]so re[B] f[Em]ined,
and drinks her[Am]self [B]half-[Em]blind
She lost her [Am]youth and she lost her To[B]ny
Now she's [Em]lost her mind
