[Verse]
G7           Fm7 
Her name was Lola
Bb7       Eb      
She was a showgirl
            Am7             D7  
With yellow feathers in her hair
      Gm                   
And a dress cut down to lay
          F        Bb
She would merengue ■ 
           Eb    
And do the chacha
              Am7      D7       
And while she tried to be a star
Gm7                   
Tony always tended bar
           Cm7          
Across the crowded floor
G7               Cm7   G7       
They worked from eight 'til four
          Cm                      D7   
They were young and they had each other
    Gm        D7  Gm  
Who could ask for more


[Chorus]
       Fm7  Bb7        Eb
At the Copa Copacabana ■ 
Fm7                       Eb     Bb
The hottest spot north of Havana ■ 
       F7   Bb7        C7
At the Copa Copacabana ■ 
F7        Bb7          Gm7        C7                  D7
Music and passion were always the fashion at the Copa ■ 
             G7   F
They fell in love ■


[Verse]
Gm F Gm7          F7  
■  ■ His name was Rico
Bb7       Eb     
He wore a diamond
       D7                   
He was escorted to his chair
       Gm7          Gm   
He saw Lola dancing there
             Fm7      Bbsus4        Eb  
And when she finished he called her over
                        D7 
But Rico went a bit too far
     D7                   
Tony sailed across the bar
                     Gm  
And then the punches flew
                D7            
And chairs were smashed in two
          Cm                 D7     
There was blood and a single gunshot
         Gm          
But just who shot who


[Chorus]

She lost her love

[Verse]
            Fm7 
Her name is Lola
          Eb       Bb
She was a showgirl ■ 
Eb           Cm     Am7   D7 
But that was thirty years ago
          Gm7                
When they used to have a show
           F7    Bb7         Eb   Bb
Now it's a disco but not for Lola ■ 
                               D7  
Still in the dress she used to wear
      D7                  
Faded feathers in her hair
                  G7     
She sits there so refined
           D7               
And drinks herself halfblind
             Cm7                    D7  
She lost her youth and she lost her Tony
          D7           
Now she's lost her mind


[Chorus]
            Bbsus4     Eb Ebmaj7
At the Copa Copacabana ■  ■     
Eb                              
The hottest spot north of Havana
       F7   Bb7        C7
At the Copa Copacabana ■ 
F7        Bb7          Gm7                       C7   D7
Music and passion were always the fashion at the Copa ■ 
              Gm  
Don't fall in love
F7               Gm7 
■  Don't fall in love
