Margaritaville
Alan Jackson
Written by Jimmy Buffet
(Capo 2nd fret)

(G) Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake,
All of those tourists covered in (D) oil,
Strummin' my six string, on my front porch swing,
Smell those shrimp, they're beginnin' to (G) boil,

(C) Wastin' (D) away again in (G) Margaritaville,
(C) Searchin' for my (D) lost shaker of (G) salt,
(C) Some people (D) claim, there's a (G) woman to (C) blame,
But I (D) know, it's nobody's (G) fault,

I don't know the reason, I stayed here all season,
Nothin' to show but this brand new (D) tattoo,
It's really a beauty, a Mexican cutie,
How it got here, I haven't a (G) clue,

C) Wastin' (D) away again in (G) Margaritaville,
(C) Searchin' for my (D) lost shaker of (G) salt,
(C) Some people (D) claim, there's a (G) woman to (C) blame,
Now I (D) think, it must be Buffet's (G) fault,

I blew out my flip-flops, stepped on a pop-top,
Cut my heel had to cruise on back (D) home,
There's booze in the blender, and soon it will render,
That frozen concoction that helps me hang (G) on,

C) Wastin' (D) away again in (G) Margaritaville,
(C) Searchin' for my (D) lost shaker of (G) salt,
(C) Some people (D) claim, there's a (G) woman to (C) blame,
But I (D) know, it's all Alana's (G) fault,

C) Wastin' (D) away again in (G) Margaritaville,
(C) Searchin' for my (D) lost shaker of (G) salt,
(C) Some people (D) claim, there's a (G) woman to (C) blame,
But I (D) know, it's my own damn (G) fault.
