I was | tired of my | lady, | we'd been to | gether too | long, |
C7/E | F | G | F | G | C | Dm | C | |
Like a | worn out re | cording | of my | favorite | song. |
C7/E | F | G | F | G | C | Dm | C | |
So while | she lay there | sleepin' | I read the | paper in | bed, |
C7/E | F | G | F | G | C | Dm | C | |
And in the | personal | columns | there was this | letter I | read. |
C7/E | F | G | F | G | C | Dm | C | |
If you | like piña co | ladas, | and gettin' c | aught in the | rain, |
C7/E | F | G | F | G | C | Dm | C | |
if you're | not into | yoga, | if you have h | alf a | brain, |
C7/E | F | G | F | G | C | Dm | C | |
if you | like makin' love at | midnight | In the | dunes of a | cape, |
C7/E | F | G | F | Dm | C | Em7 | F | C | |
Then I'm the | love that you've | looked for | Write to | me and es | cape. |
I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean, |
But me and my old lady Had fallen into the same old dull routine. |
So I wrote to the paper, Took out a personal ad. |
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad. |
Yes, I like piña coladas, And getting caught in the rain. |
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne. |
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon And cut through all this red tape |
At a bar called O'Malley's Where we'll plan our escape. |
So I waited with high hopes, And she walked in the place. |
I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face. |
It was my own lovely lady, And she said: "Aah, it's you." |
Then we laughed for a moment, And I said: "I never knew." |
That you like piña coladas, And gettin' caught in the rain, |
And the feel of the ocean, And the taste of champagne. |
If you like making love at midnight In the dunes on the cape, |
You're the lady I've looked for, Come with me and escape. |
If you like piña coladas And gettin' caught in the rain, |
if you're not into yoga, If you have half a brain, |
if you like makin' love at midnight, In the dunes of a cape, |
Then I'm the love that you've looked for Write to me and escape. |
Yes, I like piña coladas And getting caught in the rain. |
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne. |
