[Intro]
D A Bm A G D Em7 A
 
 
[Verse 1]
D
I ducked in that little tiki bar
                          Em7
Thinkin' I'd ride out the storm
        A7
She was spinnin' pink and yellow paper umbrellas
                                    D
And holdin' up her hand to have one more
D
I stood and watched her sippin', cryin'
                                     G
Flippin' through old pictures on her phone
        A
I said, hey, is this seat taken?
  A7                   D
I hate for to have to alone
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
    Em7                                    A
She cracked a smile, said, sit here if you want
        Em7                                  A
I said, I don't mean to pry, but girl you're doin' this all wrong
 
 
[Chorus]
     G
It's gonna take a lot of piña coladas
                                   D
If you're gonna drink him off your mind
     G
I'll sit here a little longer
G
And get us somethin' stronger
                                   A
Somethin' that'll work in half the time
           D
Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would
      Am7                D            G
Ain't nothin' quite like good tequila straight
   D                 Em
To chase the clouds away
      A
Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya
                     Em7
Paper umbrellas look good on top
    A                   D
But they won't stop the rain
 
 
[Verse 2]
D
She dropped her straw back in that hourglass
                               Em
And said, I guess it's worth a shot
        A
I said, lightnin', it don't mix with
A
Any kind of fishin'
                                        D
So, girl, I'm guessin' time is all I've got
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
      Em7                                 A
But tonight you need a friend and nothin' more
  Em7
I know what helps a heart to heal, girl
A
I've been there before
 
 
[Chorus]
     G
It's gonna take a lot of piña coladas
                                   D
If you're gonna drink him off your mind
     G
I'll sit here a little longer
G
And get us somethin' stronger
                                   A7
Somethin' that'll work in half the time
           D
Cause when love don't shine like you thought it would
      Am7                D            G
Ain't nothin' quite like good tequila straight
   D                 Em
To chase the clouds away
      A
Yeah, girl, I'm here to tell ya
A7                   Em7
Paper umbrellas look good on top
    A                   D
But they won't stop the rain
 
 
[Outro]
D
Yeah, when love don't shine like you thought it would
      Am7                D            G
Ain't nothin' quite like good tequila straight
   D                 Em7
To chase the clouds away
      A
Yeah, all them pink and yellow paper umbrellas
     Em7
Look good on top
    A                   D    A
But they won't stop the rain
