[A] Well, I drove [E] down to the ocean, [B] left my [A] heartache way [E] behind.
[A] But the rain [B] won't [E] leave and the pain won't [B] ease and the sun don't want to shine.
[A] So I ordered [B] me [E] up a killer, [B] found a view [A] out across the [E] sea.
I [A] sat [B] down in the [E] sand, a drink [A] in my hand, and the [B] glass looking back [E] at me.
I [A] got a bug in [B] my [E] margarita, [B] this ain't bad [A] luck, won't leave me [E] alone.

[B] Yeah, his woman [A] done knocked him [Em] down.
[A] But I asked him [B] how he's doing, [E] he stared at me confused and [Bm] said,
Hey, ain't you look around.
He [A] said, the rain [E] won't leave and the pain won't [B] ease and the sun don't want to [E] shine.
And [A] there's [B] something in the bottom [E] of this drink [A] I just got,
[B] and it don't look like the worm [E] to me.
I [A] got a bug in [B] my [E]

So [B] we put our drinks together [A] in toasted rainy weather and the [B] women that had done [E] us wrong.
Then [B] we threw back margaritas, [A] the bug just made it sweeter [B] and we both sang a happy [E] song.
I [A] got a bug in [B] my [E]
