Pina Colada Song

F F | Am Am G G F F | Dm Dm | C C | Em7 Em7 F F C C |


F F Am Am G G F F
I was tired of my lady,
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
we'd been together too long
G G F F Am Am G G F F
like a worn out recording
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
of a favorite song.

Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
So while she lay there sleepin'
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
I read the paper in bed
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
and in the personal columns
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
there was this letter I read.


F F Am Am G G F F
If you like piña coladas
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
if you're not into yoga
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
if you have half a brain

Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
if you like makin' love at midnight
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
in the dunes of a cape
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
then I'm the love that you've looked for
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
write to me and escape.


F F | Am Am G G F F | Dm Dm | C C | G G Dm7 Dm7 C C | Gm Gm
F F | Am Am G G F F | Dm Dm | C C | Em7 Em7 F F C C |


F F Am Am G G F F
I didn't think about my lady,
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
I know that sounds kind of mean
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
But me and my old lady
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
had fallen into the same old dull routine

Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
So I wrote to the paper,
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
took out a personal ad
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
And though I'm nobody's poet,
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
I thought it wasn't half bad.


F F Am Am G G F F
Yes, I like piña coladas
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and getting caught in the rain
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
I'm not much into health food,
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
I am into champagne

Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and cut through all this red tape
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
At a bar called O'Malley's
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
where we'll plan our escape.


F F | Am Am G G F F | Dm Dm | C C | G G Dm7 Dm7 C C | Gm Gm
F F | Am Am G G F F | Dm Dm | C C | Em7 Em7 F F C C |


F F Am Am G G F F
So I waited with high hopes
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and she walked in the place
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
I knew her smile in an instant,
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
I knew the curve of her face

Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
It was my own lovely lady
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and she said, "Aw, it's you."
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
Then we laughed for a moment
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
and I said, "I never knew."


F F Am Am G G F F
That you like piña coladas
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
And the feel of the ocean
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
and the taste of champagne

Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
If you like making love at midnight
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
in the dunes on the cape
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
You're the lady I've looked for,
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
come with me and escape


F F | Am Am G G F F | Dm Dm | C C | G G Dm7 Dm7 C C | Gm Gm
F F | Am Am G G F F | Dm Dm | C C | Em7 Em7 F F C C |


F F Am Am G G F F
If you like piña coladas
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and gettin' caught in the rain
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
if you're not into yoga
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
if you have half a brain

Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
if you like makin' love at midnight
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
in the dunes of a cape
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
then I'm the love that you've looked for
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
write to me and escape.


F F Am Am G G F F
Yes, I like piña coladas
Dm Dm C C G G Dm7 Dm7 C C
and getting caught in the rain
Gm Gm F F Am Am G G F F
I'm not much into health food,
Dm Dm C C Em7 Em7 F F C C
I am into champagne
