I was tired of my Flady Am G

C And in the C9personal Fcolumns Am G
F G7sus4 C Em Dm | C |
There was this letter I read (break)

If you like piña coFladas Am G
F And gettin' G7sus4caught in the Crain Em Dm
C If you're C9not into Fyoga Am G
F If you G7sus4have half a Cbrain Em Dm
C If you like C9makin' love at FmidnightAm G
F In the G7sus4dunes of a Ccape Em Dm
C Then I'm the C9love that you've Flooked for Am G

F And she G7sus4walked in the CplaceEm Dm

F I knew the G7sus4curve of her Cface Em Dm
C It was my C9own lovely Flady Am G
F And she said, "G7sus4Aw, it's Cyou."Em Dm

F G7sus4 C Em Dm | C |
And I said, ... "I never knew." (break)
