[Chorus]
E D [tab]A E (Lovely Rita, meter maid)
[Verse 1]
A G Lovely Rita, meter maid A E Nothing can come between us F#m B7 E When it gets dark I tow your heart away A D Standing by a parking meter G C When I caught a glimpse of Rita A E Filling in a ticket in her little white book A D In a cap she looked much older G C And the bag across her shoulder A E A F#m B E Made her look a little like a military man
[Verse 2]
A G Lovely Rita, meter maid A E May I ask discreetly F#m B E When are you free to have a treat with me
[Interlude]

[Chorus]
E D (Lovely Rita, meter maid) A E (Lovely Rita, meter maid)
[Verse 3]
A G Lovely Rita, meter maid A E Nothing can come between us F#m B E When it gets dark I tow your heart away A D Took her out and tried to win her G C Had a laugh and over dinner A E Told her I would really like to see her again A D Got the bill and Rita paid it G C Took her home and nearly made it A E A F#m B Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two
[Verse 4]
E A A Oh, lovely Rita, meter maid A E Where will I be without you? F#m B E Give me a wink and make me think of you

E D (Lovely Rita, meter maid) Will you please, Rita? A E (Lovely Rita, meter maid) I think about you, Rita E D A (Lovely Rita, meter maid)
