Intro: Am7 – Am7
 
 
Verse:
Am7
Drink up baby
F
Stay up all night
C
With the things you could do
    G6
You won't but you might
Am7
The potential you'll be
     F
That you'll never see
    C        E7          F
The promises you'll only make
 
 
Am7
Drink up with me now
    F
And forget all about
    C
The pressure of days
G6
Do what I say
         Am7
And I'll make you okay
    F
And drive them away
    C      E7            F
The images stuck in your head
 
 
Chorus:
F  G   Am7 -----> C
People you've been before
         F     G     Am7
That you don't want around anymore
F             G               Am7 -----> C
They push and shove and won't bend to your will
F              Fm
 I'll keep them still
 
 
Verse:
Am7
Drink up baby
F
Look at the stars
     C
I'll kiss you again
G6
Between the bars
          Am7
Where I'm seeing you there
          F
With your hands in the air
C          E7         F
Waiting to finally be caught
 
 
Am7
Drink up one more time
    F
And I'll make you mine
C
Keep you apart
G6
Deep in my heart
    Am7
Separate from the rest
        F
Where I like you the best
    C        E7            F
And keep the things you forgot
 
 
Chorus:
F  G   Am7 -----> C
People you've been before
         F     G     Am7
That you don't want around anymore
F             G               Am7 -----> C
They push and shove and won't bend to your will
F              Fm
 I'll keep them still
