First tab, hope it works for you all, I'm gonna try to tab more of her stuff soon.
Where I've put D* is where when I play this I quickly hold down the 3rd fret on my e
string for two strums, I think it sounds right but totally up to you.
Standard tuning.
Capo on 1st (or whatever suits your voice)
Intro: G, Em, C, D
G Em C D
Silly me, forgot my pill again
G Em C D G
so easily I could forget my head if I knew how
Em C D
I'd have to wear my name around my neck
G Em C D
Evacuee, evacuee style
G Em C
Ooh la la Lolita oh
C D G
Ooh la la Lolita oh
G Em C
Ooh la la Lolita oh
C D
Oh ooh la la
G Em C D G
Pretty please with your head screwed on you said
G Em C D
And I giggled all the way through your assembly
G Em C D
I like the way you dont talk down to me
G Em C D
I'm 17, I'm 17, I'll be 17 soon
G Em C
And its cold, and its getting on for chri-i-istmas
D
And we must think about our families
G Em C D
And how they will receive the news
Am D* Am
Your mother prays
D G
My mother says she can fix me
G Em C
Ooh la la Lolita oh
C D G
Ooh la la Lolita oh
G Em C
Ooh la la Lolita oh
C D
Oh ooh la la
G Em C D G
Little things oh they easily appease me
G Em C D
When little sh*ts try to trouble me and tease me over you
G Em C D
And I have to sing my guts out in the choir
G Em C D
Before I'm free, before I'm free to go
G Em C D
And it's cold, but you will not let me smoke your cigarettes
G Em
In case I die, and you are questioned
C D
Or fired
Am D* Am
We try to kiss
D G
I think a part of me likes this
G Em C
Ooh la la Lolita oh
C D G
Ooh la la Lolita oh
G Em C
Ooh la la Lolita oh
C D
Oh ooh la la
Am D* Am
Try to be cool but
D G
But I think a part of me loves you
Enjoy!
