Verse 1:
Gm7            Eb
Drink up baby, stay up all night
         Bb
With the things you could do
    F
You won't but you might
      Gm7                    Eb
The potential you'll be that you'll never see
    Bb        D           Eb
The promises you'll only make
      Gm7
Drink up with me now
    Eb                    Bb
And forget all about the pressure of days
F                      Gm7
Do what I say and I'll make you okay
    Eb
And drive them away
    Bb      D             Eb
The images stuck in your head

Chorus:
    Eb  F   Gm7           Bb
The people you've been before
         Eb     F    C7
That you don't want around anymore
     Eb        F               Gm7          Bb      Eb
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
               Ebm
I'll keep them still

Verse 2:
Gm7            Eb
Drink up baby, look at the stars
     Bb              F
I'll kiss you again between the bars
          Gm7                        Eb
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
Bb          D          Eb
Waiting to finally be caught
      Gm7                  Eb
Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine
Bb               F
Keep you apart, deep in my heart
Gm7                             Eb
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
    Bb        D          Eb
And keep the things you forgot

Chorus:
    Eb  F   Gm7           Bb
The people you've been before
         Eb     F    C7
That you don't want around anymore
     Eb        F               Gm7          Bb      Eb
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
               Ebm
I'll keep them still
