Drink the Water Jack Johnson
Tabbed by Brian Noy
The intro kind of goes like this. I know it's missing a few notes but if
you play this with the right rythm, anyone who knows the song will reconize it.
e-------------------- I've ------------------------------| B-------------------- heard ------------------------------| G-------------------- him do ------9--11-----13--9--11-----| D-------------------- it live --11--9--11--9--13--9--11--9--| A--4-7-9-2-11-7-9-7-- like --11--7--9---9--11--7--9---9--| E-------------------- this--> --9----------7-------------7--|
The verses mainly go Dm, G#, F# on the Brushfire Fairytales CD. In his acoustic
version he plays a G7 real quick before switching to F#
Drink the water...Spit it...I didn't want this
[Dm] [G#] [G7] [F#]
e---4----------------4-----3---2-----------| B---5----------------4-----3---2-----------| G---6----------------5-----4---3-----------| D---6----------------6-----3---4-----------| A---4----------------6-----5---4-----------| E---4----------------4-----3---3-----------|
The chorus is played E, G#, Dm two times through and then goes into the intro
again. On an acoustic version he plays G# and A after the chorus
To time to swim a shore
E G# Dm repeat G# A G#
e---0----------4------4--------|----4--5--4-| B---0----------4------5--------|----4--5--4-| G---1----------5------6--------|----5--6--5-| D---2----------6------6--------|----6--7--6-| A---2----------6------4--------|----6--7--6-| E---0----------4------4--------|----4--5--4-|
The rest of the song follows those same chord progressions
