     Intro: C Am |Fmaj7 G| X2

    C (x32010@1)                        Am (x02210@1)I see you in the front row,bouncing up and down
          Fmaj7 (1x3210@1)                G (320003@1)You're ripped and ready for a night downtown
      C (x32010@1)                      Am (x02210@1)And all the pretty boys are chasing you around
             Fmaj7 (1x3210@1)               G (320003@1)Cause they all wanna win your affection

 You spent three hours getting ready for the show
 Nothing on underneath and everybody knows
 Mama said wear a coat or catch your death of cold
 What's wrong with a little flirtation?

 Pre-chorus:

                F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)And then you smile at me
            F (133211@1) C (x32010@1)G (320003@1)Is that a wink I see?
         F (133211@1)       G (320003@1)Did I catch your eye?
           F (133211@1)  G (320003@1)Should I even try?
   
 Chorus:

 Oh, my Margarita (Margarita)
 Like to meet you (Margarita)
 Marguarita (Marguarita)
 I Think I need you (Marguarita)

 Take your time, dance real slow
 Remember that song from the radio
 Got your old man's car, got a place to go
 Cause we all need a little temptation

 Those two big fellas are looking for a fight
 It's what they like to do on a Saturday night
 Maybe it's the alcohol, maybe it's the lights
 But they just want to get your attention

 Chorus,intro,then bridge:

  G (320003@1)       C (x32010@1)   F (133211@1)   G (320003@1)  
 Talk to me,baby, it's alright
   G (320003@1)        C (x32010@1)          F (133211@1)      G (320003@1)I might look strange, but I don't bite
             C (x32010@1)    F (133211@1)       G (320003@1)And if you let me hold your hand
              C (x32010@1)              F (133211@1)   G (320003@1)I can find a way to make you understand

 Called last call, now it's time to go
 But I'm not the guy who gets to walk you home
 We could have made history, I guess we'll never know
 I'll see you in dreams

 Chorus x2, intro to end.
