The fingerpicking in this song is pretty simple. You just hit the
bass string once, then pick the E B G strings, the exact notes are
not important, just do it in the right rhythm.
Intro:
[C] [D] [E]
Here's approximately how the picking goes:
[C] [D]
E|---0----0----0-0-0-0--2-2----0---0----0----0-----0---------| B|---1----1----1-1-1-1--3-3----0-----0----0----0--------0----| G|---0----0----0-0-0-0--2-2----1-------1----1----1----1---1--| D|---2----2----2-2-2-2--0-0----2-----------------------------| A|---3----3----3-3-3-3---------2-----------------------------| E|-----------------------------0-----------------------------|
Verse 1: (see tab below for picking)
I me[E]t her in a club down in old Soho
where you d[A]rink champagne and it t[D]astes just like coca c[E]ola
[A] [Asus4] [A]
C-O-L-A, cola
She [E]walked up to me and she asked me to dance
I [A]asked her her name and in a [D]dark brown voice she said [E]Lola
[A] [D] [C] [C] [D] [E]
L-O-L-A, Lola, Lo lo lo lo lola
TAB FOR VERSE 1: it's impossible to tab out the picking exactly right -
it seems almost random - but this is as close as I could get
[E] [A] [D]
E|-----0----0----0----0------------0----0--------2----2------ B|-------0----0----0-------0---------2----2--------3----3---- G|---------1----1----1---1---1---------2----2--------2----2-- D|---------------------------------------------0------------- A|-------------------------------0--------------------------- E|--0--------------------------------------------------------
I met her... ...you drink... ...tastes just like...
[E] [A]

[C] [C] [D] [E]
E-----0----0------0-0-0-0--0-2--0----| B-------1----1----1-1-1-1--1-3--0----| Then the acoustic guitar G---------0----0--0-0-0-0--0-2--1----| keeps strumming the E chord D-----------------2-2-2-2--2-0--2----| while the electric plays A---3-------------3-3-3-3--3----2----| FILL 1 that is tabbed out E-------------------------------0----| below.
Lola
FILL 1: b = bend up r = release bend

[E]
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---9-9-9-9----9-11b13r11-9-----------------------------------------| D|---9-9-9-9-----------------11p9----------------------9-----9h11-9--| A|--------------------------------11-9----9/11----9h11----11---------| E|-------------------------------------12----------------------------|
Verse 2 and the rest of the song is just strummed. The only thing
to remember is that the electric guitar sometimes throws in two
little fills, one on the E chord, and one on the D chord.
E-chord Fill: D-chord Fill:
E|--4-4--2--0--| E|--2-2--0-----| B|--0-0--0--0--| B|--3-3--3--3--| G|--4-4--2--1--| G|--2-2--2--2--| D|-------------| D|-------------| A|-------------| A|-------------| E|-------------| E|-------------|
Verse 2:
Well [E]I'm not the worlds most physical guy
but when she [A]squeezed me tight
she nearly [D]broke my spine, oh my [E]Lola
Lo lo lo lo [A]Lola[Asus4] [A]
Well I[E]'m not dumb but I can't understand
why she [A]walked like a woman and [D]talked like a man
oh my [E]Lola
A D C C D E (play FILL 1)
Lo lo lo lo Lola Lo lo lo lo Lola
Chorus:
[B]
Well we drank champagne and danced all night
[F#]under electric candlelight
She [A]picked me up and sat me on her knee
and said 'Dear boy, won't you come home with me'
Verse 3:
Well [E]I'm not the world's most passionate guy
but when I [A]looked in her eye, well I [D]almost fell for my [E]Lola
Lo lo lo lo [A]Lola [D] Lo lo lo lo [C]Lola [C] [D]
E A D C C D E (play FILL 1)
Lola, Lo lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo lo Lola
Bridge:
I [A]pushed [C#m]her a[B]way
I [A]walked [C#m]to the [B]door
I [A]fell [C#m]to the [B]floor
I [E]got d[G#m]own on[C#m] my knees
Then [B]I looked at her and she at me
VERSE 4: (the fingerpicking is pretty much the same as in Verse 1)
Well[E] that's the way that I want it to stay
and I [A]always want it to [D]be that way for my [E]Lola
Lo lo lo lo [A]Lola [Asus4] [A]
[E]Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a[A] mixed up, muddled up,[D] shook up world except for[E] Lola
Lo lo lo lo [A]Lola
Chorus:
Well I l[B]eft home just a week before
And [F#]I'd never ever kissed a woman before
[A]Lola smiled and took me by the hand
and said 'dear boy, I'm gonna make you a man'
Verse 5:
Well I'm[E] not the worlds most passionate man
