VERSE 1:
Am7 F9
Drink up baby, stay up all night
C [ch]G6/B[/ch]
With the things you could do, you won't but you might.
Am7 F9
The potential you'll be, that you'll never see
C E7 F
The promises you'll only make.
VERSE 2:
Am7 F9
Drink up with me now, forget all about
C [ch]G6/B[/ch]
The pressure of days, do what I say
Am7 F9
And I'll make you okay, drive them away,
C E7 F
The images stuck in your head:
CHORUS:
F G
The people
Am
You've been before,
F G
that you don't want
Am
Around any more
F G
They push, and shove
Am
And won't bend to your will
F Fm
I'll keep them still.
VERSE 3:
Am7 F9
Drink up baby, look at the stars.
C [ch]G6/B[/ch]
I'll kiss you again, between the bars.
Am7 F9
I keep seeing you there, with your hands in the air
C E7 F
Waiting to finally be caught.
VERSE 4:
Am7 F9
Drink up one more time, and I'll make you mine.
C [ch]G6/B[/ch]
Keep you apart, deep in my heart.
Am7 F9
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
C E7 F
And keep the things you forgot.
CHORUS:
F G
The people
Am
You've been before,
F G
that you don't want
Am
Around any more
F G
They push, and shove
Am
And won't bend to your will
F Fm
I'll keep them still.
