Traveling Wilburys 
Margarita (1990)
(Dylan/Harrison/Lynne/Orbison/Petty)

From: "Vol. 1"

Weird, but strangely intriguing ...

Not sure about the Margarita-chorus: 8 bars of | A | or 4 times 
| A | Asus4 A | or | A | E D A  | ? 
Or is it something else altogether?
Suggestions highly welcome!

VERSE
Am  Dm        Am
    It was in Pittsburgh
Am  Em   Dm  Am
    Late one night
Am    Dm      Am
    I lost my head
Am     Em   Dm Am
   Got into a  fight
Am    Dm         Am
    I rolled and tumbled
Am         Em  Dm  Am
    Till I saw the light
Am  Dm              Am
    Went to the Big Apple
Am  Em   Dm Am
    Took a  bite

  A                          D
I asked her what we're gonna do tonight
          A                     E        A
She said "Cahuenga Langa-Langa, Shoe Box Soup"
   A                          D
We better keep tryin' till we get it right
A                 E     A
Tala mala sheela jaipur dhoop

EPILOGUE [?]
    A            D  A      | A | E D A  |
She wrote a long letter

On a short piece of paper
