BUFFETT TIME  
C5    F5    C5    F5    C5    G5    C5         


Verse I 
       C5                   F5
Well I know a lotta' people just like me 
    C5                        F5
Who love to gather 'round on Crystal Beach 
    C5               G5          C5
And we'll do damned well as we please 
         C5                       F5
There'll always be somebody with somethin' to say 
   C5                            F5
A- - bout the way you choose to spend your days 
    C5                          G5                 C5
And those are the ones who are just afraid to be free 
              C5                     F5
They tell ya' he did this, they say she did that 
    C5                        F5
But like ol' Merle I wear my own kinda hat 
   C5                         G5                C5
If you don't like it you can move on down the line 
      C5                   F5
Don't really care whatcha say about me 
C5                  F5
I get along by my- -self you see 
    C5                         G5                C5
And you can do better than to try and waste my time 

Chorus  
      C5          F5              G5                     C5
I'm a Texas born bonafide hell- -raiser and I do as I please 
       F5                   G5                                   C5
Gonna' lay around 'til the sun goes down in this warm southern breeze 
C5                 F5                G5                  C5
Hey if ya' wanna' pass me a Corona I got the salt and lime 
    F5                G5                            G5       C5
Got nowhere else I'd rather be, I'm just livin on Buffett Time 

Verse II 
C5                      F5
Some folks say I got a bad attitude 
     C5                          F5
I've always been one to sing my own kinda tune 
C5               G5
I don't do what every one expects of me 
C5                    F5
I ramble around from town to town 
C5                       F5
When it's time to leave I ain't wearin' a frown 
C5               G5          C5
Pack up my gui- -tar and I leave 
        C5                      F5
Well if you don't like me then that's your loss 
    C5                    F5
But over my life I'm the one that's boss 
  C5                G5                     C5
I try to do what I think is right at the time 
          C5                F5    
I'm gonna be myself 'cause that's who I am 
       C5                         F5
And if you don't like it I don't give a damn 
C5                      G5                         C5
Like that ol' song I'm gonna let my little light shine
