Tin Cup Chalice Jimmy Buffett
Tin Cup Chalice - By: Jimmy Buffett - from A1A, 1974
Intro: G C G G C G
[G]I want to go [C]back to the [G]island,
Where the s[C]hrimp boats t[D]ie up to the p[G]ilin'
[Em]Give me oysters and beer
For [A7]dinner every day of the year and I'll feel [D]fine
I'll feel [D7]fine
Chorus:
[C]'Cause I [D] want to [G]be there
C 1. l[D]ie beside Em
I want to go back down and 2. get high by the sea there
3. die beside
With a [C]tin cup for a chalice, fill it [G]up with [B7]good red [Em]wine
and I'm a' [A7]chewin', on a [D]honey-suckle [G]vine[C] [G]
Yeah, now, the sun goes slidin' 'cross the water
Sailboats, they go searchin' for the breeze
Salt air it ain't thin, I can stick right to you skin
And make you feel fine
It makes you feel fine
(repeat chorus)
Yes, and now you heard my strange proposal
Get that pack gear up and let's move
I want to be there 'fore the day, tries to steal away
And leave us behind
I've made up my mind
(repeat chorus and fade)
ending --> With a tin cup for a chalice,
Fill it up with good red wine
