Margaritaville

Intro: D G A D

D

Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake

                                                                    A

All of those tourists covered with oil

A

Strummin' my six string, on my front porch swing

                                                                                   D     D7

Smell those shrimp they're beginnin' to boil

G             A                         D                     D7     G                             A                       D     D7

Wastin' away again in Margaritaville,        searchin' for my lost shaker of salt

G                       A                                  D   A/C#     G                     A                                 D

Some people claim that there's a woman to blame, but I know, it's nobody's fault

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

Nothin' to show but this brand new tattoo

But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie

How it got here I haven't a clue

Chorus (it could be my fault)

Instrumental: D     A  | G A D A/C# G A D ??

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

Cut my heal 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 ( I know, it's my own damn fault )
