    Verse One (Jack Johnson)
  C
There must be a forecast
          G
That you won't let yourself see
             C
So you keep watching as you're driftin'
      G
Sail away from what you need
 C
Why don't I just give you
      G
Everything you'll take from me
     C
'Cuz nobody owns anything
     G
And everyone is free
Thats why

God fearing people at the bottom of the sea
C                               G
Walkin' without lanterns let a stone skip over thee
C                    G

And in them I've put my trust
C                                  G
You gotta touch the botton before you can come back up
 C                                     G
And I know what you'r heart is telling you
