Artist/Band: Strait George Tabs
Song: Marina Del Rey 2 Tab
I have only seen one chord chart for this song on the internet, it was from
four years ago, and it had some pretty bad mistakes in it.� I was playing a
gig with a guitar player that, while he was a good player, he was
butchering the chord progression of this song up one side and down the
other.� I went ahead and charted it out, and I'm going to give him the
chart the next time I see him.� Anyway, here is Marina Del Rey by George
Strait.
Marina Del Rey
Key of D
Recorded by George Strait
Charted by James Michael Randorff
[Intro]
G�� G/A�� D�� G/B
[Verse 1]
D�������������������������� G
We said goodbye in Marina del Rey
A�������������������������� Bm�������� A���������� G
"I had a good time" was the last thing I heard her say
����������� D������ A
As I walked away
D����������������������� G
And on the plane back to Tennessee
A������������ A#dim7���� Bm�� A
My mind comes across her memory
��� G������� G/A����������� D
And yesterday in Marina del Rey
[Chorus]
G���������� G6����������� GMaj7�� G
On a hidden beach under a golden sun
D����������� A/C#����������� Bm7������ A
She spread a blanket that we laid down on
��� G������������������� G/A
And loved the world away
��������������� D��� A
In Marina del Rey
G�������� G6������������ GMaj7����� G
And as we looked into each other's eyes
D����������� A/C#���������� Bm7� A
We found our bodies lost in paradise
����� G������ A�������������� D
Like castaways in Marina del Rey
[Turnaround]
G�� G/A�� D�� G/B
[Verse 2]
D�������������������� G
Like the ocean tides, highs and lows
A������������� Bm������� A��� G
Love sometimes comes and goes away
�������������� D���� A
In Marina del Rey
D������������������� G
And as this plane is touching down
A������������� A#dim7�� Bm��� A
Tears touch my eyes for I have found
�� G�������������� G/A����������� D
My heart has stayed in Marina del Rey
[Chorus]
G���������� G6����������� GMaj7�� G
On a hidden beach under a golden sun
D����������� A/C#����������� Bm7������ A
She spread a blanket that we laid down on
��� G������������������� G/A
And loved the world away
��������������� D��� A
In Marina del Rey
G�������� G6������������ GMaj7����� G
And as we looked into each other's eyes
D����������� A/C#���������� Bm7� A
We found our bodies lost in paradise

Nashville Numbers Chart
OK, for those of you that have seen my charts before, you know that
I always include a Nashville Numbers chart.� This is because MOST
(not all) professional country musicians that are worth their salt
speak the number system for chord progressions.� Here's a quick and
basic tutorial on Nashville Numbers:
In the key of D, the following numbers are the following chords:
1 = D
4 = G
5 = A
6- = Bm
#5dim7 = A#dim7
4/5 = G/A
4/6 = G/B
4{6} = G6� (sorry...� this is not typical charting style, but there is no
easy way to signify this one in plain ASCII text)
You get the idea.� Any chords in parenthesis signify a split-bar...�
in other words, (4� 5) would mean the first half of the measure is a G
chord, and the second half of the measure is an A chord.� Any other
questions?� Got a problem with the chart?� E-mail me at

Now, here's the chart:
