[G] [Gm]
Drink up baby, [Eb]
stay up all night
[Bb] With the things you could do, [Dm] you won't but you might
The [G] potential [Gm] you'll be, [Eb] that you'll never see
[Bb] The promises [D] you'll [Eb] only make
[Gm] Drink up with me now, you [Eb] forget all [Bb] about
The pressure of days, [Dm] do what I [F] say
And [Gm] I'll make you okay, [Eb] you drive them away
[Bb] The image [D] is stuck in your [Eb]
head
[Dm] People [G] you've [Bb] been before
That you [Gb]
[F] don't want [C] around anymore
They're [Eb] push and [F] shove and [G] won't bend [Bb] to your [Eb] will
I'll keep them [Ebm]
still
[Gm]
Drink up baby, [Eb] look at the stars
[Bb] I'll kiss you again
[Dm] Lead me, that's where [Gm] I'm seeing you there
With [Eb] your hands in the air
[Bb]
Wait [D] till you finally [Eb] be caught
[Gm] Drink up baby, time [Eb] and I'll make you [Bb] mine
Keep you in my heart, [Dm] deep in my heart
[C] [Gm] Separate from the rest, [Eb] where I like you the best
[Bb] And [D] keep the things you [Eb]
forgot
[F] People [G]
[C] you've been [Bb] before
That you [Gb]
[F] don't want [C]
around anymore
They're [Eb]
push [Dm] and shove and [G] won't bend [C] to [Bb] your [Eb] will
I'll keep them [Ebm]
still
