[Intro]
E A B7 E
[Verse 1]
E
Nibblin on sponge cake
E
Watchin' the sun bake
B7
All of those tourists covered with oil
B7
Strummin my six-string
B7
On my front porch swing
E A
Smell those shrimp they're beginnin' to boil
[Chorus]
B7 E
Wastin' away again in Margaritaville
A B7 E
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
A B7 E A
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
B7 E
But I know it's nobodys fault
[Verse 2]
E
I don't know the reason
E
I stayed here all season
B7
Nothin' to show but this brand new tattoo
B7
But it's a real beauty
B7
Right here on my bootie
E A
How it got here I haven't a clue
[Chorus]
B7 E
Wastin' away again in Margaritaville
A B7 E
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
A B7 E A
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
B7
Now I think
E
Hell, it could be my fault
[Instrumental Solos]
E B7 A B7 E
A B7 E
[Verse 3]
E
I blew out my flip-flop
E
Stepped on a pop-top
B7
Cut my heel had to cruise on back home
B7
But there's booze in the blender
B7
And soon it will render
E A
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on, hang on
[Chorus]
B7 E
Wastin' away again in Margaritaville
A B7 E
Searching for my lost shaker of salt
A B7 E A
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
B7 E
But I know it's my own damn fault
A B7 E A
Yes and some people claim that there's a woman to blame
A E
But I know it's my own damn fault
[Outro]
