[Intro]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F Am7b5 | Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F |
[Verse 1]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
like a worn out recording of a favorite song.
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
So while she lay there sleepin' I read the paper in bed
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F Am7b5
and in the personal columns there was this letter I read.
[Chorus 1]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
If you like piña coladas and gettin' caught in the rain
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
if you're not into yoga if you have half a brain
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
if you like makin' love at midnight in the dunes of a cape
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
then I'm the love that you've looked for write to me and escape.
[Instrumental]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F Am7b5 | Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F |
[Verse 2]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
But me and my old lady had fallen into the same old dull routine
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad.
[Chorus 2]
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
Yes, I like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon and cut through all this red tape
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
At a bar called O'Malley's where we'll plan our escape.
[Instrumental]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F Am7b5 | Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F |
[Verse 3]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
So I waited with high hopes and she walked in the place
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
It was my own lovely lady and she said, "Aw, it's you."
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
Then we laughed for a moment and I said, "I never knew."
[Chorus 3]
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
That you like piña coladas and gettin' caught in the rain
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
And the feel of the ocean and the taste of champagne
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
If you like making love at midnight in the dunes on the cape
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
You're the lady I've looked for, come with me and escape
[Chorus 1]
Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
If you like piña coladas and gettin' caught in the rain
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
if you're not into yoga if you have half a brain
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
if you like makin' love at midnight in the dunes of a cape
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
then I'm the love that you've looked for write to me and escape.
[Chorus 2]
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
Yes, I like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain
Am7b5 Bb Bb/D C7 | Bb Gm/C | F Fmaj7/A Gm7| F
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne....
