https://soundcloud.com/graham-windle/to … ever-comes
Em    A G riff
Em                          AG
The  sea  rolls  in 
Em                          AG
The sun  is  hot
E m                         AG
Thank  the  world
Em                          AG
For  what  you've got
Em                          AG
Another  day
Em                          AG
For  you to love
Em                                   AG
Beneath  the  the  bright
E m                         AG
Blue  sky  above

Em

We  hope  they  last

Well. I expect we can come up with a whiskey song easy enough.

Trampled by Turtles - Ain't No Use In Trying is right off the top of my head. "My friends they drink whiskey. Sometimes I go along." 

"The Wild Rover" by everybody who has ever owned a guitar or seen one. "I spent all me money on whiskey or beer."

"Whiskey in the Jar" Dubliners first, but Beamer knows Metallica's version.

"Walkin' Cane" - traditional but I heard it first by Robert Earl Keen. It doesn't say "whiskey" specifically, but it does make a request for having someone "hand me down my bottle of corn".  I don't think he was wanting niblets.

And of course, ol' Willie!  "Whiskey River" - a love song sang TO the whiskey!  "Whiskey River take my mind! Don't let her memory get to me." and so on...

Someone should write a song about "Tomorrow I'll buy flowers and go without whiskey"  or vice versa, as the case may be.
