SAXOPHONES
Jimmy Buffett
(Buffett)
2003, MCA UTV Records
[Intro]
E                                   A                E
I cut my teeth on Gumbo rock, Benny Spellman and Dr. John
Sweet Erma Thomas and Frogman Henry
        F#                      B
Used to boogie woogie all night long
A
Though I love rock n' roll the acoustic guitar
        E
Was the only way I had of becomin' a star
    F#
I'm doin' really nice and travellin' around
         B                                   A    B
But they won't play my record in my old home town
[Chorus]
               A
But if I had saxophones
                                         E
Yeah, big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks
          A
If I had saxophones
                                                         B  C  B
I could get some recognition from that Mobile, Alabama D J
E
Livin' by the ocean, sometimes I get the notion
   A                  E
To take my Janey down town
We hang out in a funky little bar
     F#                     B
They call it the "Shipwreck Lounge"
        A
Well we get kind of drunk and we play rock n' roll
E
Grabbin' everybody right down in his soul
F#
When we get to cookin' somethin's still wrong
        B                                          A     B
There's still somethin' missin' from them good ole songs
[Chorus]
               A
But if we had saxophones
                                   E
Big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks
          A
If we had saxophones
                                                            B     C  B
I could make that joint shimmy like a big California earth quake
                A
Yeah if we had saxophones
                                         E
Yeah, big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks
          A
If we had saxophones
                                                         B   C  B
I could get some recognition from that Mobile, Alabama D J
