Yeah, Drowned on Dry Land is DADGAD as is Whiskey Remorse - which is particularly easy to play!

Before the wedding, road trip to Vegas with a pint of bay rum, some Lucky Strikes, and your closest friends, with all your Del disks, laying more emphasis on "One More Last Hurrah." Ok...Of course for the first dance "Tell her this"...very appropriate. Nice and slow. Then after a while and everyone has had a few, and you're Uncle Louie has stopped dancing and trying to slip dollars into the coat check girl's dress, play "Here and Now" to liven it up a bit more (try to have your little nephew sing the end part "I don't want to waste time....." He is the only one who could reach that note.). You're sure to see your ex at the bar wishing for the only thing that could make his day brighter would be to hear "As soon as the Tide Comes in." Then the nerves set in as you get home and realize what you did!....You'll definitely be humming "What I Think She Sees".......or "No Family Man"...Then to the arguments....Stop eating banana chips in bed or I hate that smelly blue soap in the shape of a flower you always buy!!!And here comes the "Opposite View." Then you start in with your co-worker..."It might a s well be you".....that red head, little, 20 year old, floozy down the hall you had it for you years ago...you're thinking "Be My Down Fall"...please "Be my Down Fall."...you go for drinks, you dance, "you do the white man's overbite"...you go to her/his house for after hour drinks and......and the wife/husband finds out. Then you'll be singing...together...."Kiss this thing Goodbye"..and the next thing you know you're stuck in a shady little bar off Colorado Blvd. next to some guy who smells like a tuna sandwich, snacking on stale peanuts, drinking over priced whiskey and cokes, feeling twice as guilty because they are not allowed on your "low-carb diet", dying to here "Whiskey Remorse". ....by the way, good luck and congratulations!!
