Escape Pina Colada Song Chords

(ver. 1)
Rupert Holmes
Intro: ( C/E  F Am G F  G  C Em Dm C ) x2

NC                  F Am G F              G          C Em Dm C
I was tired of my lady,      we'd been together too long
       C/E         F     Am G F      G        C Em Dm C
Like a worn out recording,     of a favorite song
             C/E         F    Am G F            G        C Em Dm C
So while she lay there sleepin',    I read the paper in bed
           C/E       F    Am G F                 G         C Em Dm C
And in the personal columns,     there was this letter I read

             C/E    F  Am G F              G             C Em Dm C
If you like Pina Colada,      and gettin' caught in the rain
          C/E       F  Am G F        G            C Em Dm C
If you're not into yoga,     if you have half a brain
            C/E             F     Am G F        G            C Em Dm C
If you like makin' love at midnight,    in the dunes of the cape
        C/E          F       Am G F          G         C Em Dm C
I'm the lady you've looked for,     write to me and escape

Solo: ( C/E  F Am G F  G  C Em Dm C ) x2 

NC                       F  Am G F             G              C Em Dm C
I didn't think about my lady,     I know that sounds kind of mean
           C/E     F  Am G F            G         C        Em  Dm  C
But me and my old lady,      had fallen into the same old dull routine
      C/E          F   Am G F             G       C Em Dm C
So I wrote to the paper,      took out a personal ad
               C/E       F  Am G F              G           C Em Dm C
And though I'm nobody's poet,     I thought it wasn't half bad

             C/E    F  Am G F             G             C Em Dm C
Yes, I like Pina Coladas,    and getting caught in the rain
        C/E         F        Am G F      G         C Em Dm C
I'm not much into health food,      I am into Champagne
            C/E            F         Am G F              G            C Em Dm C
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon,     and cut thru all this red tape
     C/E           F      Am G F              G         C Em Dm C
At a bar called O'Malley's,     where we'll plan our escape

Solo: ( C/E  F Am G F  G  C Em Dm C ) x2 

NC                F       Am G F           G              C Em Dm C
So I waited with high hopes,     when she walked in the place
            C/E         F     Am G F            G            C Em Dm C
I knew her smile in an instant,     I knew the curve of her face
          C/E         F  Am G F          G               C Em Dm C
It was my own lovely lady,      and she said, "Oh, it's you"
        C/E           F    Am G F           G  C        Em Dm C
And we laughed for a moment,      and I said, "I never knew

               C/E     F   Am G F             G             C Em Dm C
That you liked Pina Coladas,     and getting caught in the rain
        C/E          F   Am G F         G            C Em Dm C
And the feel of the ocean,     and the taste of champagne
            C/E             F      Am G F        G            C Em Dm C
If you like makin' love at midnight,     in the dunes of the cape
           C/E             F        Am G F          G         C Em Dm C
You're the love that I've looked for,     come with me and escape"

Solo: ( C/E  F Am G F  G  C Em Dm C ) x2 

            C/E     F  Am G F             G             C Em Dm C
If you like Pina Colada,     and gettin' caught in the rain
          C/E       F  Am G F        G            C Em Dm C
If you're not into yoga,     if you have half a brain
            C/E             F     Am G F        G            C Em Dm C
If you like makin' love at midnight,    in the dunes of the cape
        C/E          F       Am G F          G         C Em Dm C
I'm the lady you've looked for,     write to me and escape

             C/E    F  Am G F             G             C Em Dm C
Yes, I like Pina Coladas,    and getting caught in the rain
        C/E         F        Am G F      G         C Em Dm C
I'm not much into health food,      I am into Champagne  (fade)
