[D] [Em] [D] [Em] [D]
[Em] [D]
Nibbling on sponge cake, watching the sun bake
All of those tourists covered with [A] oil
[Bm] [A]
Strumming my six-string [D] [A] on my front porch swing
Smell those shrimp, they're beginning [D] to boil
[G]
Wasting [A] away again in [D] margarita beds
[G] Searching for [A] my lost shaker [D] of salt
[G] Some people [A] claim that there's [D] a [A]
woman [G] to blame
But [A] I know it's [D] nobody's fault
Don't know the reason, stayed here all season
Nothing to show but this brand new [A] tattoo
But it's a real beauty, I'm Mexican cutie
Highway got here, I [D] haven't a clue
[G]
Wasting [A] away again [D] in margarita beds
[G] Searching for [A] my lost [D] shaker of salt
[G]
Some [A] people claim that there's [D] a [A]
woman to [G] blame
[A] Now I think, hell it [D] could be my fault

I blew out my flip-flop, stepped on a pop-top
But my heel had to cruise [A] on back home
But there's booze in the blender, and soon it will render
That frozen concoction that helps me [D] hang on
[G]
Wasting [A] away again in [D] margarita beds
[G] Searching for [A] my lost shaker [D] of salt
[G] Some people [A] claim that there's [D] a [A] woman [G] to blame
But [A] I know it's my [D] own damn fault
Yes [G] sir, some people [A] claim that [D] there's a [A] woman [G] to blame
