Drink the Water
Jack Johnson
C#m G# F#
C#m7
Drink the water - drink it down - this time I know
G#7 F#7
I'm bound to spit it back up - I didn't want this
Salty substitute - just not going to do
I need some air, if I'm going to live through
This experience - reminds me of a clock
That just won't tick - I want to wake up
From this concussion, but my dream is just not done
I'm late again - it's just one of those
Bad days look outside, and be careful what you ride
You just might find that you're out
E G# C#m
...of time to swim ashore
E G# C#m
If I drift long enough I'll be home
*Solo* C#m7 G#7 F#7 (x2)
He's got delusions between his ears
Man, it takes up too much space
And all that tension between his gears
Man, he'll never ever leave this place
He's got stones instead of bones and everybody knows
Ah man, that can make you real real slow
And if heaven was below he'd know just where to go
Dive in the ocean and he'd sink like a stone, and he'd say...
It's time to swim ashore
If I drift long enough I'll be home
Hold on if you can - you're gonna sink faster than you can imagine
So hold
Hold on if you can - you're gonna sink faster than you can imagine
So hold
It's just time to swim ashore
E G# C#m
If I drift long enough I'll be home...
