Whiskey for Everybody Lyrics
by Gary Jules
The recorded version has two fingerpicked guitars playing at once. I didn't
try to figure that out, but instead tried to make a nice single-guitar
version with the proper chord voicings and a similar playing style.
Intro/Verse - play the verse pattern once as an intro:
"From the air the fields east of Dublin look just like a watercolor"
"When the streets arise up to meet the plane nobody notices"
Chorus Part 1 - link the end of the C pattern into the Am7:
"That I miss your face more than anything in the world"
"And I miss your face more than anything in the world"
s2
Here's an alternative to the above C pattern, that I like:
Chorus Part 2:
"Whiskey for everybody, to us and to all we left behind"
Verse:
"A beautiful morning you??ve got someplace to be"
"So if you have to go be sure and think of me"
Chorus Part 1:
"Cause I miss your face more than anything in the world"
"And I miss your face more than anything in the world"
Chorus Part 2 - this time around it goes into the bridge section:
"Whiskey for everybody whisper the words before you're"
Bridge:
"Out the door again"
"I believe that you were right"
"The seas are full and stars are falling"
"I believe that you were right"
"We, we were so young when we left home"
Verse:
"From the fields the air over Dublin looks just like a watercolor"
"And even in empty arms I feel the weight of you"
Chorus:
"Oh I miss your face more than anything in the world"
"I miss your face more than anything"
"Whiskey for everybody, to us and to all we left behind"
"when we"
"left home"
The last G is not arpeggio, but a single gentle pluck:
That's it. There are many slight fingerpicking variations you can try
to fill it out a bit. Experiment, make it your own, and have fun with
this beautiful song.
