[] I was tired
of my
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
lady, we'd been together too long like a worn out
re-
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C Gm
cording of a favourite song. So while she lay
there
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
sleepin' I read the paper in bed and in the
personal
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C
columns there was this letter I read. If you like
Pina
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
Colada and gettin' caught in the rain if you're not
into
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C Gm
yoga If you have half a brain if you like makin'
love at
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
midnight in the dunes of the cape I'm the lady
you've
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C
looked for write to me & escape!

[] I didn't think
about my
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
lady, I know that sounds kind of mean but me and my
old
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C Gm
lady had fallen into the same old dull routine. So I wrote
to the
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
paper took out a personal ad and tho' I'm
nobody's
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C
poet I thought it wasn't half bad Yes, I like
Pina
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
Coladas, and getting caught in the rain. I'm not much
into
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C Gm
health food, I'm into Champagne. I've got to meet
you by
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
tomorrow noon, and cut thru all this red tape. At a bar
called
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C
O'Malley's where we'll plan our escape.

[] So I waited
with
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
high hopes, then she walked in the place. I knew her smile
in an
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C Gm
instant, I knew the curve of her face. It was my own
lovely
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
lady, and she said, "Oh, it's you!" And we laughed
for a
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C
moment, and I said, "I never knew, that you liked
Pina
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
Coladas and getting caught in the rain. And the feel
of the
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C Gm
ocean, and the taste of Champagne. If you like makin'
love at
F Am G F Dm C G Dm7 C Gm
midnight, in the dunes of the cape, you're the love that
I've
F Am G F Dm C Em7 F C
looked for, come with me and escape."
