Capo 4th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I got a place that I like to slip off to
When everything starts closin in
And I got some ways that the world dont agree with
Yeah, some folks would call it a sin
But I work like a dog and Im good at my job
And I live for a one-day weekend
So Im takin off and I might stay all week
Hell I may never come back again.
Chorus
I Need A Breather, a sweet senorita
Writin my name in the sand
I need a break from this job and this angry boss man
Some coconut lotion, a chair by the ocean
Just sit back and take it all in
I got a fever and I Need A Breather again.
The people at work they think Im a loner
But I need some time to myself
And I dont want to waste my precious vacation
Livin for somebody else
Cause Ill have a drink and I might fall down
And I dont think that theyd understand
I know it all sounds a little bit crazy
Well maybe thats just what I am
Chorus
Things fell apart down at the office
And Im getting blamed for it all
Ive only been back for a couple of days
And Im already climbin the wall
Chorus2
Hey I Need A Breather, a stiff margarita
Bring em fast as you can
Cause I need a break from this job and this angry boss man
Some coconut lotion, a chair by the ocean
Just kick back and take it all in
I got a fever and I Need A Breather again
I got a fever and I Need A Breather again. Yes I Do.
