Am7 x02213
[Verse 1]
Am7 Fadd9
Drink up, baby, stay up all night.
C
With the things you could do,
Em7/B
You won't but you might.
Am7
The potential you'll be,
Fadd9
That you'll never see,
C E7 F
The promises you'll only make.
Am7
Drink up with me now,
Fadd9
And forget all about
C
The pressure of days.
Em7/B
Do what I say,
Am7
And I'll make you okay,
Fadd9
And drive them away
C E7 F
The images stuck in your head
[Chorus]
F G6 Am*
People you've been before
Fm/Ab Em/G Am Am/F#
That you don't want around anymore -
F G6 Am*
That push and shove and won't bend to your will.
F Fm
I'll keep them still.
[Verse 2]
Am7 Fadd9
Drink up, baby, look at the stars.
C
I'll kiss you again
Em7/B
Between the bars,
Am7
Where I'm seeing you there,
Fadd9
With your hands in the air,
C E7 F
Waiting to finally be caught.
Am7
Drink up one more time,
