1st VERSE:
E
At the Bama Breeze,
Bsus2
You can shoot some pool down there,
A
You can act a fool down there,
E
You can play it cool down there...
E
At the Bama Breeze,
Bsus2
You can drink some beer down there,
A
Argue, laugh and cheer down there,
E
Pass another year down there...
1st BRIDGE:
C#m
Jimmy got caught,
A
Somking a joint out behind the bar,
Sitting in his car;
E
And they took him to jail,
A
The tip jar paid his bail...
C#m
In 1984,
A
Mick Jagger passed through town,
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jimmy_buffett/bama_breeze_crd_ver_2.html ]
Bought the house a round;
E
Signed his name on the wall,
A
In the ladies bathroom stall;
C#m A
Yeah...
2nd VERSE:
E
At the Bama Breeze,
Bsus2
I turned twenty-one down there,
A
Had too much fun down there,
E
Stumbled out with the sun down there...
1st SOLO:
2nd BRIDGE:
C#m
Saturday night,
A
The bouncer Brady lets the ladies in free,
With the fake ID;
E
And a short enough skirt,
A
Yeah, he figures what the hell could it hurt...
C#m
Second set,
A
The owner Lulu gets up with the band,
A beer in her hand;
E
And sings Freebird slow,
A
Then she raises a toast;
Bsus2
Here's to Ronny and the boys,
C#m A
Now everbody make some noise...
FINAL VERSE:
E
At the Bama Breeze,
Bsus2
You're one of our own down there,
A
You never drink alone down there,
E
Good God, I feel at home down there...
2nd SOLO:
E
At the Bama Breeze,
Bsus2
You're one of our own down there,
A
You never drink alone down there,
E
Good God, I feel at home down there...
