Man~ana
=======
By Jimmy Buffett

D
She said I can't go back to America soon

It's so goddamn cold it's gonna snow until June
              G                       Em
Yeah, they're freezin' up in Buffalo, stuck in their cars
     A                        G           D
And I'm lyin' here 'neath the sun and the stars.

 D
Customs man tells her that she's gotta leave

She's got a plan hidden up her shrewd sleeve
                    G          Em
Wants to find her a captain, a man of strong mind
    A                G           D     (D7)
And any direction he blows'll be fine.

CHORUS:
G                                     D
Please don't say man~ana if you don't mean it
   A                                  D    D7
I have heard those words for so very long
G                                                   D
Don't try to describe the ocean if you've never seen it
     A                     G                     D
Don't ever forget that you just may wind up being wrong.

D
Tried and I tried but I don't understand

Never seems to work out the way I had it planned
                 G           Em
Hangin' out in a marina when Steve Martin called
    A                 G                 D    
Singin' anybody there really wanna' get small.

D
But women and water are in short supply

There's not enough dope for us all to get high
              G                   Em
I hear it gets better, that's what they say
    A                G                D   (D7)
As soon as we sail on to Cane Garden Bay.

2nd Chorus:

G                                     D
Please don't say man~ana if you don't mean it
   A                                 D     D7
I have heard your lines for so very long
G                                                     D
Don't try to describe the scenery if you've never seen it
     A                     G                    D
Don't ever forget that you just may wind up in my song.



(spoken: "Alright, let's reggae Reefers'")
SOLO:  D          G    A   G D

D
Called all my friends on those cheap nightly rates

Sure was good to talk to the old United States
           G                     Em         
While the lights of St. Thomas lie twenty miles west
      A                       G             D
I see General Electric's still doing their best.

D
I've got to head this boat south pretty soon

New album's old and I'm fresh out of tunes
       G
But I know that I'll get 'em
   Em
I know that they'll come
             A                     G         D   (D7)
Through the people and places and Caldwoods Rum.

Last Chorus:

G                                        D
So please don't say man~ana if you don't mean it
  A                                 D
I have done your lines for so very long
G                                                       D
Don't try to describe a Kiss concert if you've never seen it
     A                    G                       D
Don't ever forget that you just may wind up being gonged!  (gong)
      A                       G                  D
And I hope Anita Bryant never ever does one of my songs.
