[Am]
Drink up baby, [F] stay up all night
[C] The things you could, [G] you won't but you might
The [Am] potential you, [Dm] [F] you'll never see
[C] Promises
[E] you won't [F] remain
Drink [Am] up with me now, [Dm] [F] forget all about
[C] The pressure and [G] do what I say
And [A] I'll [Am] make it okay, [Bb] drive [C]
[F] them away
[C] The images [E] stuck in [F] your head
[G] [A] People you [G]
barely fought [C] and [Fm] you [C] don't want [D] to let go
[F] They push, [G] shove and [A] move [Em] into [Gm] your will
[F]
I'll keep them still
[Am] Drink up baby, [F] look at the stars
[C] I'll kiss you again [G] between the bars
Where [Am] I'm seeing you there with your [F] hands in the air
[C] Waiting [Em] to [E] finally [F] be caught
Drink [Am] up one more time and [F] I'll make you [C] mine
Keep you up, [G] deep in my heart
[Am] Separate from the rest [F] but I like you the [C] best
Keeping [E] the things you [Dm] [F] forgot
[G] You've [A] [G] been [C] before that [Fm] you [Gm] don't [E] want
[D]
They [F] push, [C] [D] shove and [Am] move [C] into [Gm] your will
[F]
I'll keep them still
