[G] [Am] [Em] [C]
[D] The sound of this album is different to our last album.
It's kind of going [G] back to our acoustic [D] bass, you know,
where two [A] fellas play acoustic guitars and the harmonies ring [Ab] true
and Jeremy's background as a Torres Strait [A] Islander.
It's got that Islander feeling, the Islander harmonies,
and it also kind of reminds us of this place as well.
Singing on the [E] beach after late nights or just writing songs out in the boat.
Drink The World Dry is a very special song to me, actually.
There's been a few family members getting old and getting sick
and instead of writing sad songs reflecting on that,
it's about quality of life and living, I suppose, every day like it's the last.
So we're recording Drink The World Dry on the main beach tonight on sunset
[Bb] and I suppose the whole aim is to just strip it right back
and capture the beauty [N] of the island, the beauty and the kind of emotion
that the sun brings as it's dragging down to the ocean.
God, that was dramatic.
The sun brings as it drags down to the ocean.
Oh my God, I don't know what I was trying to say.
[G]
[D] If you told me [A] we had one day
[B] I wouldn't travel the world, I wouldn't dance in the [D] streets, I would stay.
If I told you I [A] broke the clock
Would [B] you lie awake adding the [G] bills, could you [D] stop?
Even if we sit here [A] for days, leave the line, nothing [G] gonna change.
We could drop a line in the [B] water, meet me at the [E] shore, we could practice what you [D] told us.
Even if we just have [A] one night, reach for the stars [G] in the sky.
We could talk for hours and hours, forget about the [A] crowd, just let them [D] pass us by.
[E]
As we drink the [D] world dry, when you told me [A] I need to know
[B] That I should travel the world, I should dance in the street when you [D] go.
When I told you that [A] I'd be fine, [B] I stopped sleeping in late.
If you could promise to [G] wake me in time.
[D]
Even if we sit here [A] for days, leave the line, nothing [G] gonna change.
We could drop a line in the water, meet me at the [A] shore, we could practice what you [D] told us.

We could talk for hours and hours, forget about the crowd, just let them [D] pass us by.
[E] As we drink the [Em] world dry.
[E] [D]
If [B] we could stay just this way, [E] no more hearts would [D] break like they do.
[E] And I say to you.
[D]
Even if we sit here [A] for days, leave the line, nothing [G] gonna change.
