Intro 2x: F  F  G  F   
          C  E D C  

                     (F G F)  
I was tired of my lady,  
                                      C E D C  
We'd been together too long  
                                   F G F 
Like a worn out recording  
                            C E D C 
Of a favorite song  

                                            F G F 
So while she lay there sleepin'  
                                   C E D C 
I read the paper in bed  
                                           F G F 
And in the personal columns  
                                    C E D C 
here was this letter i read  

                                 F G F 
If you like piña coladas  
                                      C E D C  
And gettin' caught in the rain  
                             F G F 
If you're not into yoga  
                                 C E D C 
If you have half a brain   

                                               F G F  
If you like makin' love at midnight  
                               C E D C  
In the dunes of a cape  
                                                            F G F 
Then i'm the love that you've looked for  
                                    C E D C 
Write to me and escape.   

(intro 2x)  

                                     F G F 
I didn't think about my lady,   
                                                 C E D C 
I know that sounds kind of mean  
                                 F G F 
But me and my old lady   
                                                           C E D C 
Had fallen into the same old dull routine  

                                  F G F 
So i wrote to the paper,   
                                  C E D C 
Took out a personal ad  
                                            F G F 
And though i'm nobody's poet,   
                                      C E D C  
I thought it wasn't half bad 
  
                                 F G F 
Yes, i like piña coladas  
                                           C E D C  
And getting caught in the rain  
                                           F G F 
I'm not much into health food,   
                             C E D C  
I am into champagne  

                                                          F G F  
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon  
                                               C E D C 
And cut through all this red tape  
                                      F G F 
At a bar called o'malley's  
                                         C E D C 
Where we'll plan our escape  


(Intro 2x)  

                                        F G F  
So i waited with high hopes  
                                          C E D C  
And she walked in the place  
                                             F G F  
I knew her smile in an instant,   
                                          C E D C  
I knew the curve of her face  

                                      F G F  
It was my own lovely lady   
                                        C E D C 
And she said, 'aw, it's you.'  
                                                F G F 
Then we laughed for a moment  
                                    C E D C 
And i said, 'i never knew.'  




                                       F G F 
That you like piña coladas  
                                            C E D C  
And gettin' caught in the rain  
                                     F G F 
And the feel of the ocean  
                                         C E D C 
And the taste of champagne  

                                                    F G F 
If you like making love at midnight  
                                    C E D C 
In the dunes on the cape  
                                            F G F 
You're the lady i've looked for,   
                                        C E D C  
Come with me and escape

                                F G F  
If you're not into yoga  
                                 C E D C  
If you have half a brain

I'm not much into health food,   
                               C E D C 
I am into champagne
