                     (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.
