Hello jmsaccountant, thanks for posting on the Community page, there is no way to copy a chart of accounts and paste it into a new company. You would need to export the chart of accounts you need out and then import it into the new account.
accounting>chart of account> account history> export icon next to printer icon
accounting>chart of accounts> next to new click drop down arrow> import
