Alright, so this is a tab for Holes to Heaven by Jack Johnson on the Thicker
Than Water OST. This song was played by Mr.Johnson with 1 acoustic guitar,
in contrast to the Holes to Heaven that appears on On and On. This is
certainly the best version to play with acoustic guitar. The strumming
pattern in standard Jack Johnson style, and might be hard to pick up off the
start, but just listen to the song, and you'll get it - try just practicing
it with the strings muted.

Verse 1:
Fthe air was more than humid
Fand the heat was more than hungry
Fand the cars were square and spitting diesel fumes Em1
(walk up b/t verses- pluck low E once and then change from Em to G)
Fthe bulls were running wild
Fbecause they’re big and mean and sacred
Fand the children were playing cricket with no shEm1oes
(walk up b/t verse & chorus- pluck low E once and then change from Em to Bm)
Chorus:
Dmthe next morning we woke up, man, to a seven hour drive
Fwell there we were stuck in port blaire where boats break and children stare
Fand there were so many fewer questioGns
when sDmtars were still jDmust the holes to hFeaven
Em2 mDmmhmm
Fand there were so many fewer questioGns
when Dmstars were still jDmust the holes Fto heaven
Em2 mDmmhmm
Gx4
- same as previous verse -
Verse 2:
disembarking from the port
with no mistakes of any sort
moving soundly, engine running smooth
officials were quite friendly
once we drown them with our sweet talk
and we bribe them with our cigarettes and booze
Chorus 2:
Dmthe next morning we woke up man with the sunrise to the right, well,
Fmoving back north to port blaire where boats break and children stare
Fand there were so many fewer questioGns
when sDmtars were still jDmust the holes to hFeaven
Em2 mDmmhmm
Fand there were so many fewer questioGns
when sDmtars were still jDmust the holes Fto heaven
Em2 mDmmhmm
ends on G
