[Intro]
G


[Verse]
G
Nibblin on sponge cake, watchin the sun bake,
                                  D
all of those tourist covered with oil.

Strummin my six string, on my front porch swing,
                                        G
smell those shrimp they're beginnin' to boil.


[Chorus]
C         D                 G          C
  Wastin away again in Margaritaville,
               D               G    C
searchin for my lost shaker of salt.
            D                    G  D     C
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
      D                   G
but I know, it's nobody's fault.


[Verse]
(G)
Don't know the reason, I stayed here all season.
                                     D
Nothin to show but this brand new tattoo.

But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie,
                            G
how it got here I haven't a clue.


[Chorus]
C         D                 G          C
  Wastin away again in Margaritaville,
               D               G    C
searchin for my lost shaker of salt.
            D                    G  D     C
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
      D                          G
now I think, hell it could by my fault.

[Verse]
(G)
I blew out my flip flop, stepped on a pop top,
                                  D
cut my heel had to cruise on back home.

But there's booze in the blender, and soon it will render,
                                          G
that frozen concoction that helps me hang on.


[Chorus]
C         D                 G          C
  Wastin away again in Margaritaville,
               D               G    C
searchin for my lost shaker of salt.
            D                    G  D     C
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
      D                      G      C
and I know, it's my own damn fault.
            D                    G  D     C
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame,
      D                      G      G
and I know, it's my own damn fault.
