Hey guys I love this song and was wondering if any one could tab out and find re strumming pattern/chords for what you thought you need by jack Johnson thanks again
Tim
 
You can find the chords for most of his songs here . . . as far as uke tabs (picking), not too many posted.
 
I finally figured this out and took the time to actually put in on here hope it helps any one who wanted to know. I would make a video but i don't have a camera so some one should really make one. I think its pretty close to right except maybe a little segment in the last intro line but besides that it sounds pretty close to me
shootz!



Intro: (2nd, 3rd, and 4th segments are repeated twice

C (x4)

C (x3)
I can't give you everything you want
Dm (x3)
But I could give you what you thought you need.

A map to keep beneath your seat,
C (x2)
You've been to me in time I'll get you there.
Dm (x2)
I'll fold it up so we don't find our way back soon,
C (x2)
Nobody knows we're here.
C (x3)
We can park the van and walk to town
Dm (x3)
Find the cheapest bottle of wine that we could find

And talk about the road behind
C (x2)
How getting lost is not a waste of time.
Dm (x2)
The water moor will take us home in the moment
C (x2)
We will sing as the forest sleeps.
Em Dm C (x2)
Well it's all for the sake of arriving with you
Em Dm C (x2)
Well it's all for the sake of arriving with you
C (x3)
Well, I will make the table into a bed
Dm (x3)
The candle is burning down its time to rest.

I can't take back things already gone,
C (x2)
But I could give you promises for keeps.
Dm (x2)
And I would only take them back if they become your own
C (x2)
And you give them to me .
Em Dm C (x2)
And it's all for the sake of arriving with you.
Em Dm C (x2)
Well it's all for the sake of arriving with you.
Em
We could make this into anything
Dm C (x2)
We could make this into more than words we speak.
Em
This could make us into anything
Dm C (x2)
It could make us grow and become what we'll be.
