D
Nibblin' on sponge cake, watchin' the sun bake 
                                  A  
All of those tourist covered with oil
A7
Strummin' my four string, on my front porch swing
                                        D   D7
Smell those shrimp they're beginnin' to boil

G       A             D             D7
Wastin' away again in Margarita-ville
G         A                     D   D7
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt
G    A                           D  A     G
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
D     A                  D
But I know it's nobody's fault

D
I don't know the reason, I stayed here all season
                                   A     
Nothin' to show but this brand new tattoo
A7
But it's a real beauty, a Mexican cutie
                        D   D7
But how it got here I haven't a clue


G       A             D             D7
Wastin' away again in Margarita-ville
G         A                     D   D7
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt
G    A                           D  A     G
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
D     A                   D
But I know it could be my fault


D
I blew out my flip-flop, stepped on a pop-top
                                  A    
Cut my heel had to cruise on back home
A7
But there's booze in the blender, and soon it will render
                                        D   D7
That frozen concoction that helps me hang on


G       A             D             D7
Wastin' away again in Margarita-ville
G         A                     D   D7
Searchin' for my lost shaker of salt
G    A                           D  A     G
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
D     A                     D
But I know it's my own damn fault

G    A                           D  A     G
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame
D     A                     D
But I know it's my own damn fault
