[Intro] Em7 [Verse 1]
Em7               C
   Drink up baby, stay up all night

         G
With the things you could do

    D6/F#
You won't but you might

      Em7                    C
The potential you'll be that you'll never see

    G        B7          C*
The promises you'll only make

      Em7
Drink up with me now

       C                 G
And forget all about the pressure of days

D6/F#                  Em7
Do what I say and I'll make you okay

    C
And drive them away

    G      B7            C*
The images stuck in your head
[Chorus]
    C  D   Em*
The people you've been before

         C     D      Em      Em/C#
That you don't want around anymore

     C        D               Em*              C
That push and shove and won't bend to your will

               Cm
I'll keep them still
[Verse 2]
Em7               C
   Drink up baby, look at the stars

     G              D6/F#
I'll kiss you again between the bars

          Em7                        C
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air

G          B7         C*
Waiting to finally be caught

      Em7                  C
Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine

G               D6/F#
Keep you apart, deep in my heart

    Em7                         C
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best

    G        B7            C*
And keep the things you forgot
[Chorus]
    C  D   Em*
The people you've been before

         C     D      Em      Em/C#
That you don't want around anymore

     C        D               Em*              C
That push and shove and won't bend to your will

               Cm
I'll keep them still
