Copacabana

Song composer: Barry Manilow
Lyrics author: Barry Manilow


Bm7 E7 
Her name is Lola 
Amaj7 
She was a showgirl
Ebm7 Ab7 
With yellow feathers in her hair
C#m7 
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
F#m Ab7 C#m 
Across the crowded floor
F#m Ab7 C#m 
They worked from eight til four
F#m Ab7 
They were young and they had each other    
C#m7 Cm7 Bm7 
Who could ask for  more
           Bm7 E7 
            At the Copa,    
           Amaj7 
            Copacabana
           Bm7 E7 Amaj7 
            The hottest spot north of Havana (,here)
           F#7 Bm7 E7 
            At the Copa,     
           C#m7 F#7 
            Copacabana
           Bm7 E7 C#m7 F#7 Bm7 Ab7 
            Music and passion were always in fashion at the Copa 
C#m7 
They fell in love...   
C#m7 Cm7 Bm7 
  
Bm7 Cm7 C#m7 
      
C#m7 Cm7 Bm7 Cm7 C#m7 
    
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
C#m9 Dm9 Ebm9 Em9 
Copa   copacabana
Em9 Fm9 F#m9 Gm9 
Copacabana     
Gm9 F#m9 Fm9 Em9 
Music   and   passion
Em9 Ebm9 Dm9 C#m9 Cm9 
Always in    fashion 
C#m9 C#m9 Cm9 Bm9 
            
Bm9 Cm9 C#m9 
           
C#m9 Cm9 Bm9 Cm9 C#m9 
      
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 ...
