Copacabana

Song composer: Barry Manilow
Lyrics author: Barry Manilow


C#m7 F#7 
Her name is Lola 
Bmaj7 
She was a showgirl
Fm7 Bb7 
With yellow feathers in her hair
Ebm7 
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
Abm Bb7 Ebm 
Across the crowded floor
Abm Bb7 Ebm 
They worked from eight til four
Abm Bb7 
They were young and they had each other    
Ebm7 Dm7 C#m7 
Who could ask for  more
           C#m7 F#7 
            At the Copa,    
           Bmaj7 
            Copacabana
           C#m7 F#7 Bmaj7 
            The hottest spot north of Havana (,here)
           Ab7 C#m7 F#7 
            At the Copa,     
           Ebm7 Ab7 
            Copacabana
           C#m7 F#7 Ebm7 Ab7 C#m7 Bb7 
            Music and passion were always in fashion at the Copa 
Ebm7 
They fell in love...   
Ebm7 Dm7 C#m7 
  
C#m7 Dm7 Ebm7 
      
Ebm7 Dm7 C#m7 Dm7 Ebm7 
    
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
Ebm9 Em9 Fm9 F#m9 
Copa   copacabana
F#m9 Gm9 Abm9 Am9 
Copacabana     
Am9 Abm9 Gm9 F#m9 
Music   and   passion
F#m9 Fm9 Em9 Ebm9 Dm9 
Always in    fashion 
Ebm9 Ebm9 Dm9 C#m9 
            
C#m9 Dm9 Ebm9 
           
Ebm9 Dm9 C#m9 Dm9 Ebm9 
      
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 ...
