Here it is. Got a lot more of these if anyone's interested. Be specific
though, don't just say, "hey send some more Buffett...". Me and some
other folks are currently working on a "Great Chords Compliation" of every
Buffett song ever released. The lyrics are already completed. You can
access via anonymous ftp to: ventura.cs.bsu.edu /pub/buffett/lyrics
Email me if you have any questions.
Later,

DNow they make new F#7movies in B7old black and white
E7With happy endings, where A7nobody fights
So Dif you find yourF#7self in that nosB7talgic rage
Honey, E7jump right up and A7show your age
Chorus:
I Dwish I had a F#7pencil thin musB7tache
E7 The "Boston A7Blackie" Dkind
A Dtwo toned F#7Ricky RicarB7do jacket
And an E7autographed picture ofA7 Andy Devine
Oh ID remember bein' buckD7-toothed and skinny
GWritin' fan letters to BbSky's niece Penny
Oh I Dwish I had a F#7pencil thin B7mustache
Then E7I could solve some A7mysteries Dtoo
Oh it's EmBandstand, B7Disneyland, Emgrowin' up B7fast
EmDrinkin' on a B7fake I.D. Em
And F#mRama of the C7jungle was F#meveryone's C7Bawana
But E7only jazz musicians were A7smokin' marijuana
Yeah, I Dwish I had a F#7pencil thin B7mustache
then E7I could solve some A7mysteries Dtoo
(same as above chords with this verse)
But then it's flat top, dirty bob, coppin' a feel
Grubbin' on the livin' room floor (so sore)
Yeah, they send you off to college, try to gain a little knowledge,
But all you want to do is learn how to score
Yeah, but Dnow I'm gettin' F#7old, don't B7wear underwear
I E7don't go to church and I A7don't cut my hair
But DI can go to F#7movies and B7see it all there
Just the E7way that it uA7sed to Dbe
Chorus:
That's why I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
The "Boston Blackie" kind, a two-toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine
Oh, I could be anyone I wanted to be
Maybe suave Errol Flynn or a Sheik of Araby
If I only had a pencil thin mustache
Then I could do some cruisin' too
Yeah, DBryl-cream, a little dab'll do yah
Oh, E7I could do some A7cruisin' Dtoo
