[Verse 1]
Fm7 Gbm7 Gm7             Fm9
            Her name was Lola,
Bb#13          Ebmaj7
     she was a showgirl
            Am7-5               D7
With yellow feathers in her hair
           Gm7
And a dress   cut down to there
            Fm9   Bb7           Ebmaj7
She would merengue   and do the chacha
              Am7-5             D7
And while she tried to be a star
     Gm7
Tony always tended bar
           Cdim7   Gm7
Across the crowded floor
                 Cdim7      Gm7
They worked from eight 'til four
          Cm7                       D7
They were young and they had each other
          Gm7 D/F# Ddim/F
Who could ask for  more? 

[Chorus]
Bbdim    Fm9         Ebmaj7
At   the Copa, Copacabana
    Fm9          Bb7        Gm7
The hottest spot north of Havana
Gm7/C C7  Fm9  Bb#13      Gm7 C7
At    the Copa,     Copacaba_na
Fm9       Bb#13        Gm7        C7
Music and passion were always the fashion
       Fm7  D7             Gm7 Gbm7
At the Copa,  they fell in love

[Interlude]
Fm7 Gbm7 Gm7 Gbm7 Fm7 Gbm7 Gm7             Fm9
                              His name was Rico,
Bb#13          Ebmaj7
     he wore a diamond

[Verse 2]
         Am7-5              D7
He was escorted to his chair
       Gm7
He saw Lola dancing there
             Fm9
And when she finished,
Bb7              Ebmaj7
   he called her over
         Am7-5             D7
But Rico went a bit too far
     Gm7
Tony sailed across the bar
             Cdim7   Gm7
And then the punches flew
                Cdim7      Gm7
And chairs were smashed in two
          Cm7                   D7
There was blood and a single gunshot
         Gm7 D/F# Ddim/F
But just who shot who?  

[Chorus]
Bbdim    Fm9         Ebmaj7
At   the Copa, Copacabana
    Fm9          Bb7        Gm7
The hottest spot north of Havana
Gm7/C C7  Fm9  Bb#13      Gm7 C7
At    the Copa,     Copacaba_na
Fm9       Bb#13        Gm7        C7
Music and passion were always the fashion
       Fm7  D7         Gm7     Gbm7
At the Copa,  she lost her love

[Verse 3]
Gm7            Fm9
   Her name is Lola,
Bb#13          Ebmaj7
     she was a showgirl
             Am7-5           D7
But that was thirty years ago
              Gm7
When they used   to have a show
           Fm9   Bb7            Ebmaj7
Now it's a disco,   but not for Lola
             Am7-5                 D7
Still in the dress she used to wear
      Gm7
Faded feathers in her hair
               Cdim7  Gm7
She sits there so   refined
              Cdim7    Gm7
And drinks herself halfblind
             Cm7                      D7
She lost her youth and she lost her Tony
          Gm7  D/F#    Ddim/F  Bbdim
Now she's lost her mind      At

[Chorus]
    Fm9         Ebmaj7
the Copa, Copacabana
    Fm9          Bb7        Gm7
The hottest spot north of Havana
Gm7/C C7  Fm9  Bb#13      Gm7 C7
At    the Copa,     Copacaba_na
Fm9       Bb#13        Gm7        C7
Music and passion were always the fashion
       Fm7  D7              Gm7 Gbm7
At the Copa,  don't fall in love

[Post-Chorus]
Fm7             Gbm7 Gm7 Gbm7
   Don't fall in     love
