I find, that this is the most simple way to play the song. To me it sounds almost exactly like the original.
One of the other tab version of this song, which i found to be useful but not fully correct, switched the Gm7
and Dm7 chords, but when i listen to the song i'm quite sure this is the correct way.
F | Am G F | Dm7 | C | G Dm7 C | Gm7
F | Am G F | Dm7 | C | Em F C |
I was tired of my Flady,Am G F
We'd been toGm7gether too lCong. E D C
Like a worn Dm7out recorFding, Am G F
of a Gm7favorite sCong. E D C
So while she Dm7lay there sFleepin' Am G F
I read the Gm7paper in beCd E D C
And in the Dm7personal coFlumns Am G F
There was this Gm7letter i reCad E D C
If you like piña Fcoladas Am G F
and gettin' caugGm7ht in the rCain E D C
if you're Dm7not into yFoga Am G F
if you Gm7have half a bCrain E D C
if you like Dm7makin' love at mFidnight Am G F
in the Gm7dunes of aC cape E D C
then I'm the Dm7love that you've lFooked for Am G F
wriGm7te to me and eCscapeE. F C
F | Am G F | Dm7 | C | G Dm7 C | Gm7
F | Am G F | Dm7 | C | Em F C |
I didn't think about myF lady,Am G F
I know that soGm7unds kind of meCan E D C
But me andDm7 my old lFady Am G F
had fallen iGm7nto the samCe old dull rEoutiDneC
So I wDm7rote to the pFaper, Am G F
took out a Gm7personal aCd E D C
And though IDm7'm nobody's pFoet, Am G F
I thought it Gm7wasn't half Cbad. E D C
Yes, I like piña FcoladasAm G F
and getting caGm7ught in the rCain E D C
I'm not mDm7uch into hFealth food, Am G F
I amGm7 into champCagne E D C
I've got to Dm7meet you by tFomorrow nAmoonG F
and cut througGm7h all this rCed tapeE D C
At a Dm7bar called OF'Malley's Am G F
where we'll Gm7plan our eCscape. E D C
F | Am G F | Dm7 | C | G Dm7 C | Gm7
F | Am G F | Dm7 | C | Em F C |
So I waited with Fhigh hopesAm G F
and she waGm7lked in the pClace E D C
I knew her sDm7mile in an iFnstant, Am G F
I knew the Gm7curve of her Cface E D C
It was my Dm7own lovely lFady Am G F
and she sGm7aid, C E D C
