What happens when you take the basic 12 bar blues in the key of D and mix in a doo wop riff? 
You get a fusion that results in a funky boogie woogie vamp!

For mountain dulcimer in standard DAd (1-5-8) tuning, no extra frets are required, but a couple of extra bends in the right spots help with getting that bluesy attitude.

Suggested skill level is Advanced Beginner and above. This can be practiced at any speed and the use of barr chords keeps the fingering pretty simple.

This isn't intended as a complete song, but rather is a study on the blues chord progression and an exercise in strumming and timing. Get the basic pattern down and you can add a startling amount of improvisation and your own idea of what the blues should be using just basic pentatonic in the box notes/shapes.

One of Buffett's most recognizable songs, Margaritaville was first released on the 1977 album Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes. 

TWO COPIES of tab are included: Advanced Beginner (4 pages) and Intermediate (4 pages) along with the complete lyrics and several suggested strum patterns. Arraged in standard DAd (1-5-8) tuning. No extra frets required.

This well known song is a great way for confident Advanced Beginner players to get a tune under their fingers and then add more complexity as they become comfortable.

Advanced Beginner tab focuses on using one and two finger chords and allows the player to become comfortable with a right hand strum pattern that can be played throughout the piece. Any of the chords in the Intermediate tab may be subsituted into the beginner tab for a fuller sound.

Intermediate tab adds more complex three finger chords and suggests a syncopated strum as described on the lyrics sheet. No extra frets are required, but the 1+ is indicated in two measures for a true D7 chord. If the player does not have the 1+ it may be omitted by playing only the melody string or leaving the other two strings open.
