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