Verses:

 							 			Dsus	D
1.   Nibblin’ on spongcake, watchin’ the sun   bake;
2. I don’t know the reason, I stayed here all season
3. I blew out my flip-flop, stepped on  a  pop  top;

			 Dsus				A
     all  of those tourists  covered with oil.
with nothing to show but this brand-new tatoo.
     cut my heel,  had to cruise on back home.

        Strummin’ my six string, on the front porch swing.
        But  it’s a real beauty, a      Mexican     cutie,
But there’s booze in the blender, and soon it  will render

							D	Dsus	D	D7	G
Smell those shrimp; they’re beginning to boil.
But how it got here I    haven’t    a    clue.
That frozen concoction  that helps me hang on.

CHORUS:

	   A			   D		Dsus	D7	G			     A
Wastin’ away again in Margaritaville, 			searchin’ for my 

		   D	Dsus	D7	G			A	
lost shaker of salt.  			Some people claim that there’s a 

D  A/C#  G/B
woman to blame,

	 A					    D
but I  know  			it’s     nobody’s    fault.
now I think, 			hell, it could be my fault.
but I  know  			it’s  my  own  damn  fault.
