"Margarita"(McCann)
From "Turn"(1999)
This one's far from my favourite tune from The B'ys,
but for the sake of completeness....
*Capo on the second fret*
Intro: C Am |Fmaj7 G| X2
C Am
I see you in the front row,bouncing up and down
Fmaj7 G
You're ripped and ready for a night downtown
C Am
And all the pretty boys are chasing you around
Fmaj7 G
Cause they all wanna win your affection
You spent three hours getting ready for the show
Nothing on underneath and everybody knows
Mama said wear a coat or catch your death of cold
What's wrong with a little flirtation?
Pre-chorus:
F C G
And then you smile at me
F C G
Is that a wink I see?
F G
Did I catch your eye?
F G
Should I even try?
Chorus:
C Csus4 C
Oh, my Margarita (Margarita)
Like to meet you (Margarita)
Marguarita (Marguarita)
I Think I need you (Marguarita)
Take your time, dance real slow
Remember that song from the radio
Got your old man's car, got a place to go
Cause we all need a little temptation
Those two big fellas are looking for a fight
It's what they like to do on a Saturday night
Maybe it's the alcohol, maybe it's the lights
But they just want to get your attention
Chorus,intro,then bridge:
G C F G
Talk to me,baby, it's alright
G C F G
I might look strange, but I don't bite
C F G
And if you let me hold your hand
C F G
I can find a way to make you understand
Called last call, now it's time to go
But I'm not the guy who gets to walk you home
We could have made history, I guess we'll never know
I'll see you in dreams
Chorus x2, intro to end.
