The Kooks - Ooh La
[ chords by: WheezyE (SaskStrum on Youtube figured them out though)]

I've had this on my computer for quite a while.  I remember laboriously going over this 
tab for a while, but I can't remember how much is original.  I think all the chords are 
original, but if I ripped you off I'm sorry.
Fun fact, I heard the band pronounce their name as "The Cooks."  Not like "kooky", but 
like "cook."

(Bm11) Go to Hollywood and pay the price---

Oh go to Hollywood---  (Em)

And don't (Bm11) be a star,     it's such a drag
(G5)   Take care of yourself, don't begin to lag
(Em)   It's a hard life to live, so live it well
