Intro: D G A7 D
D
Nibblin' on sponge cake Watchin' the sun bake
D A
All of those tourists covered with oil
A7
Strummin' my six-string On my front porch swing
A7 D
Smell those shrimp, they're beginnin' to boil
Chorus:
G A D
Wastin' away again in Margaritaville
G A D
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
G A D A G
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
A7 D
But I know it's nobody's fault
D
I don't know the reason I stayed here all season
D A
Nothin' to show but this brand new tattoo
A7
But it's a real beauty a Mexican cutie
A7 D
How it got here I haven't a clue
(Chorus)
A7 D
Now I think hell, it could be my fault
Solo: D A G A D A G A7 D
D
I blew out my flip-flop Stepped on a pop-top
D A
Cut my heel had to cruise on back home
A7
But there's booze in the blender and soon it will render
A7 D
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on
(Chorus)
A7 D
But I know It's my own damned fault
G A D A G
Yes and some people claim that there's a woman to blame
A7 D
But I know it's my own damned fault
Outro: D G A7 D
