Grapefruit-Juicy fruit
======================
By Jimmy Buffett

B    C         B       C
Grapefruit   a bathin' suit
              F#    G
chew a little juicy fruit
              C
wash away the night
B     C         B      C
Drive-in    you guzzle gin
                F#     G
commit a little mortal sin
                  C
it's good for the soul

(chorus:)
 Dm7           G7   Cmaj7       C6
     And oh it gets so    damn lonely
 Dm7             G7        Cmaj7
     when you're on a plane alone
 Dm7                  G7             Cmaj7               C6
     And if I had the money honey I'd strap you in beside me
  D7                          G7
     And never ever leave you leave you at home all along and cryin'


Ten speed  no need
My pickup gets me where I please
Chuggin' down the street

But I'll be leavin'
In a little while
So close your eyes and I'll
I'll be back real soon

solo (spoken: "Ah, take it Refers...  Lady's choice, everybody dance...")

repeat chorus
