Intro
Verse 1
D A7 D A7 (A2 A)
The sun is hot and that old clock is movin' slow, and so am I
D A7 Bm A7 (A2 A)
The work day passes like molasses in wintertime, but it's July
Gettin' paid by the hour, and older by the minute, boss just pushed me over the limit
I'd like to call him somethin', I think I'll just call it a day
Chorus
Pour me something tall and strong, make it a Hurricane before I go insane
G A7 N.C. D
It's only half past twelve, but I don't care, it's 5 o'clock, somewhere
Interlude
Verse 2
Well, this lunch break is gonna take all afternoon, and half the night
D A7 Bm A7 (A2 A)
Tomorrow mornin' I know there'll be hell to pay, hey but that's alright
Ain't had a day off now in over a year, my Jamaican vacation's gonna start right here
If the phone's for me, you can tell them I've just sailed away
Chorus
Pour me something tall and strong, make it a Hurricane before I go insane
It's only half past twelve, but I don't care, it's 5 o'clock, somewhere
Interlude
D G A7 D x2
Bridge
I could pay off my tab, pour myself in cab and be back to work before two
At a moment like this I can't help but wonder what would Jimmy Buffett do
Chorus
Pour me something tall and strong, make it a Hurricane before I go insane
G A7 N.C.
It's only half past twelve, but I don't care
Pour me something tall and strong, make it a Hurricane before I go insane
It's only half past twelve, but I don't care, he don't care, and I don't care
N.C. D
It's 5 o'clock, somewhere
