Copacabana

Song composer: Barry Manilow
Lyrics author: Barry Manilow


Am7 D7 
Her name is Lola 
Gmaj7 
She was a showgirl
C#m7 F#7 
With yellow feathers in her hair
Bm7 
And a dress cut down to there
She would merengue
And do the cha-cha
And while she tried to be a star
Tony always tended bar
Em F#7 Bm 
Across the crowded floor
Em F#7 Bm 
They worked from eight til four
Em F#7 
They were young and they had each other    
Bm7 Bbm7 Am7 
Who could ask for  more
           Am7 D7 
            At the Copa,    
           Gmaj7 
            Copacabana
           Am7 D7 Gmaj7 
            The hottest spot north of Havana (,here)
           E7 Am7 D7 
            At the Copa,     
           Bm7 E7 
            Copacabana
           Am7 D7 Bm7 E7 Am7 F#7 
            Music and passion were always in fashion at the Copa 
Bm7 
They fell in love...   
Bm7 Bbm7 Am7 
  
Am7 Bbm7 Bm7 
      
Bm7 Bbm7 Am7 Bbm7 Bm7 
    
His name was Rico
He wore a diamond
He was escorted to his chair
He saw Lola dancing there
And when she finished
He called her over
But Rico went a bit too far
Tony sailed across the bar
And then the punches flew
And chairs were smashed in two
There was blood and a single gunshot
But just who shot who?
            At the Copa ...
            ... She lost her love
 
Solo
Bm9 Cm9 C#m9 Dm9 
Copa   copacabana
Dm9 Ebm9 Em9 Fm9 
Copacabana     
Fm9 Em9 Ebm9 Dm9 
Music   and   passion
Dm9 C#m9 Cm9 Bm9 Bbm9 
Always in    fashion 
Bm9 Bm9 Bbm9 Am9 
            
Am9 Bbm9 Bm9 
           
Bm9 Bbm9 Am9 Bbm9 Bm9 
      
Her name is Lola
She was a showgirl
But that was thirty years ago
When they used to have a show
Now it's a disco
But not for Lola
Still in the dress she used to wear
Faded feathers in her hair
She sits there so refined
And drinks herself half-blind
She lost her youth and she lost her Tony
and she's lost her mind
            At the Copa ...
