Alan Jackson - Its Five Oclock Somewhere guitar tab

It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere

Jackson/Buffet

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

G C D

The sun is hot, and that old clock is moving slow.

D*

And so am I

G C D

The work day passes slower than molasses in wintertime

D*

But it’s July

C D

I’m getting paid by the hour and older by the minute

C D

The boss just pushed me over the limit

C D

I’d like to call him something

C D G

I think I’ll just call it a day

Chorus

G C D

Pour me something tall and strong. Make it a hurricane before I go insane

G C D

It’s only half past twelve But I don’t care

D G

It’s five o’clock somewhere

G C D

This lunch break is going to take all afternoon

D*

And half the night

G C D

Tomorrow morning I know there’ll be hell to pay

D*

Hey but that’s all right

C D

I haven’t had a day off now in over a year

C D

My Jamaican vacation starts right here

C

If the phones for me

D G

You can tell them I just sailed away

Chorus Repeat

C D C G

I could pay up my tab. Pour myself in a cab and be back to work before two.

C D

At a moment like this, I can’t help but wonder

C G

What would Jimmy Buffet do. (I think he'd say....)

Chorus Repeat (and some general beach banter)
