Jimmy Buffett wrote this in 1976 for Elvis, but he died in 1977 before it was recorded. Imagine the difference if this had been an Elvis song!

[Verse] – – –  [C] Nibblin’ on sponge cake, watchin’ the sun bake all of those tourists covered with [G] oil.  [G] Strummin’ my six string, on my front porch swing. Smell those shrimp they’re beginnin’ to [C] boil   [C7]

{ CHORUS } – – – [F] Wastin’ [G] away again in [C] Margaritaville [C7], [F] searchin’ for my [G] lost shaker of [C] salt  [C7].  [F] Some people [G] claim that there’s a [G] woman [F]  to [G] blame,   but I [C] know, it’s nobody’s fault

[Verse] – – – [C] Don’t know the reason, I stayed here all season.  Nothin’ to show but this brand new [G] tattoo.  [G] But it’s a real beauty, a Mexican cutie.  How it got here I haven’t a [C] clue   [C7]

{ CHORUS }  but I [C] think, hell it could be my fault

[Verse] – – – [C] I blew out my flip flop, stepped on a pop top.  Cut my heel had to cruise on back [G] home.  [G] But there’s booze in the blender, and soon it will render that frozen concoction that helps me hang [C] on  [C7]

{ CHORUS }   but I [C] think, it is prob’ly my fault
{ CHORUS }  but I [C] know, it’s my own damn fault.
[Outro] – – – [D] [F] [G] [C]
