CHORUS
B A B
Lovely Rita meter maid Lovely Rita meter maid
E D A E B
Lovely Rita meter maid nothing can come between us
C#m F#7 B
When it gets dark I tow your heart away
E A D G
Standing by a parking meter when I caught a glimpse of Rita
E B
filling in a ticket in her little white book
In a cap whe looked much older, and the bag across her shoulder
made her look a little like a military man
|E C#m F#m7 B7|
E D A E D
Lovely Rita meter maid may I enquire discreetly
C#m F#7 |B A/B |G#m/B F#m/B |
When are you free to take some tea with me?
E6/B B7 |E D A|E B7 |E F#7 |B7 |
Ah Rita
CHORUS
Took her out and tried to win her, had a laugh, and over dinner
told her I would really like to see her again
Got the bill and Rita paid it, took her home, I nearly made it,
sitting on the sofa with a sister or two
Oh, lovely Rita, meter maid, where would I be without you?
Give us a wink and make me think of you
