Tin Cup Chalice by Jimmy Buffett
Tin Cup Chalice
Capo:no capo
[Intro]
G C G G C G
[Verse]
G C G
I want to go back to the island,
C D G
where the shrimp boats tie up to the pilin'.
Em
Give me oysters and beer
A7 D
for dinner every day of the year and I'll feel fine.
D7
I'll feel fine.
[Chorus]
C D G
'Cause I want to be there,
C D Em
I want to go back down and lie beside the sea there.
C G D/F# Em
With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine,
A7 D G C G
and I'm a' chewin', on a honey-suckle vine.
2. [Verse]
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)
3. [Verse]
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)

Sail boats they go searching for the breeze
Salt air it ain't thin
It can stick right to your skin, and make you feel fine
Makes you feel fine
I wanna be there
Wanna go back down and and get high by the sea there
With a tin cup for a chalice, fill it up with good red wine
And I'm a chewin' on a honeysuckle vine
Yes and now you heard my strange proposal
So get that Packard up and let's move
I wanna be there before the day
