This is a song for any tequila drinkers that might be out there tonight.
[C]
[D] [E] Watch out!
It's a battle over a Zark town called Margaritaville.
You may [Db] have heard [D] of it.
[Bb] We'll take [D] you there right now.
[Bb] Go!
[D] [G]
[E]
Nibbling on sponge cake
Watching the sun bake
All those tourists covered [A] with oil
I'm strumming my six string
On my front porch swing
Smell those shrimps they're beginning to [D] boil
[G]
Wasting [A] away again in [D] Margaritaville
[G]
Searching for [A] my lost sugar [D] salt
[G]
Some people [A] claim there's [D] a woman [G] to blame
But [A] I think
[E] that it's [D] nobody's fault
I don't know the reason
Stayed here all season
With nothing to show but a brand new [A] tattoo
But it's a real beauty
A Mexican [E] cutie
[A]
How it got here I [D] haven't a clue
[G]
Wasting [E] away [D] again in Margaritaville
[G]
Searching for [A] my sugar [D] salt
[G]
Some [A] people claim there's [D] a woman to [G] blame
But I [A] think [E] hell it could be my [D] fault
I

blew out my flip-flop
Stepped on a pop-top
I cut my heel had to cruise [A] on back home
But this booze and the flander
As soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps [D] me hang on
[G]
Wasting [A] away again [D] in Margaritaville

Searching for [A] my lost sugar [D] salt
