Her name was (Fm7)Lola;

(Ab)she was a (Ebmaj7)showgirl

with yellow (Am7)feathers in her (D7)hair and a (Gm)dress cut (Gm7)down to (Gm6)there.

She would (Fm7)Merengue

(Ab)and do the (Ebmaj7)ChaCha,

and while she (Am7)tried to be a (D7)star,

Tony (Gm7)always tended bar, across the (Cdim7)crowded (Gm)floor.

who could (Gm)ask (D7)for (Bb7)more?
