[D]
On a patch of sand where [G] the warm wind blows, not [A] a TV set, not [D] a radio, just an old guitar when [G] the sun sinks low [A] down at the Lottie [D] Dottie.
When the stars come out, it's [G] the place to be [A] if you're all alone, [D] needing company.
It's a lover's bar where [G] the fun is [Em] free [A] down at the [D] Lottie Dottie.
[G] Down at the Lottie, there's a perfect [A] margarita [D] in a mason jar at [G] the end of the world in a sea of green where [Em] the ocean [A] smiles [D] and the seagulls scream.
We all know [G] just how lucky [A] we are.
[D] Down at the Lottie Dottie.
[G]
[A] La la la la [D] la la la la la la la.
[G]
[A] Down at the [D] Lottie Dottie.
When [G]
[A] [D]
[G] [Em]
[A] [D]
you pack at work [G] at 9-5 [A] and it's pouring rain [D] on your morning bout, you'll remember when [G] you were last [Em]
alive.
[A] Down at the La [D]-dee-da.
[G] Down at the La -
There's a perfect [A] margarita [D] in a mason jar
[G] At the end of the world and a sea of [D] dreams
[Em] Where the ocean [A] smiles [D] and the seagulls scream
We all [G] know just how lucky [A] we are
Down [D] at the La-la-la-la
[G]
[A] La-la-la [D]-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la [G]
-la [A]-la-la-la [D]
[G] [A]
[D]
[G] [A]
[D] -la-la-la
When the band strikes up [G] and the sun is down
[A] The Pirate King [D] buys another lamb
And the rumours fly, [G] mermaids [Em] are in town
[A]
[D] La-dee-da
[G] [A]
[Em] [D] I think I see some normies in there
[G] [Em] [A]
[D] Down at the La-la-la-la
[G] La-la-la-la-la-la [A]-la-la
What kind of man [D] am I?
