Jackson/Buffet

Standard Tuning – Chord D*= 020032  Tabbed by: Mike Wilson

G+G         C majorC             D MajorD
The sun is hot, and that old clock is moving slow.
D*
And so am I
G+G          C majorC            D MajorD
The work day passes slower than molasses in wintertime
D*
But it’s July
C majorC                D MajorD
I’m getting paid by the hour and older by the minute
C majorC            D MajorD
The boss just pushed me over the limit
C majorC          D MajorD
I’d like to call him something
C majorC         D MajorD     G+G
I think I’ll just call it a day

Chorus
G+G                 C majorC          D MajorD
Pour me something tall and strong. Make it a hurricane before I go insane
G+G              C majorC      D MajorD
It’s only half past twelve  But I don’t care
D MajorD         G+G
It’s five o’clock somewhere
G+G          C majorC         D MajorD
This lunch break is going to take all afternoon
D*
And half the night
G+G        C majorC         D MajorD
Tomorrow morning I know there’ll be hell to pay
D*
Hey but that’s all right
C majorC              D MajorD
I haven’t had a day off now in over a year
C majorC          D MajorD
My Jamaican vacation starts right here
C majorC
If the phones for me
D MajorD                G+G
You can tell them I just sailed away

Chorus Repeat
C majorC           D MajorD            C majorC           G+G
I could pay up my tab. Pour myself in a cab and be back to work before two.
C majorC           D MajorD
At a moment like this, I can’t help but wonder
C majorC            G+G
What would Jimmy Buffet do.  (I think he'd say....)
