Margaritaville – Jimmy Buffet

 

                   D

                   Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake

                                                          A

                   All of those tourist covered with oil

                   G

                   Strummin' my six string, on my front porch swing

                                                                               D

                   Smell those shrimp they're beginnin' to boil

                  

                    [CHORUS]

                        G                   A            D

                   Wastin' away again in Margarita-ville

                        G                     A                  D

                   Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt

                        G                                               A   D        A     

                   Some people claim that there's a woman to blame

                                 G            A           D

                   But I know it's nobody's fault

 

 

                   I don't know the reason, I stayed here all season

                   Nothin' to show but this brand new tatoo

                   But it's a real beautie, a Mexican cutie

                   But how it got here I haven't a clue

                    [CHORUS]

 

                  

 

                   I blew out my flip-flop, stepped on a pop-top

                   Cut my heel had to cruise on back home

                   But there's booze in the blender, and soon it will render

                   That frozen concoction that helps me hang on

                    [CHORUS]

 

                    [CHORUS - Revised]

                        F           G                  C G      F

                   Some people say that there's a woman to blame

                              G                     C

                   But I know it's my own damn fault
