Chords with lyrics

[Intro]

E minor 7Em7


[Verse 1]

E minor 7Em7
Drink up baby,
C9C9
Stay up all night
     Gmaj7Gmaj7
With the things you could do,
  D6D6
You won't but you might.
   E minor 7Em7
The potential you'll be,
   C9C9
That you'll never see
  Gmaj7Gmaj7     BMaj7Bmaj7    Cmaj7Cmaj7
The promises you'll only make.
E minor 7Em7
Drink up with me now,
 C9C9
Forget all about
  Gmaj7Gmaj7
The pressure of days
D6D6
Do what I say
E minor 7Em7
And I'll make you okay,
C9C9
Drive them away,
  Gmaj7Gmaj7   BMaj7Bmaj7   Cmaj7Cmaj7
The images stuck in your head:


[Chorus]

C7C7   D7D7
The people
E minorEm
You've been before that you
C7C7   D7D7
Don't want
E minorEm
Around any more
   C7C7     D7D7
They push, and shove
E minorEm          C7C7
And won't bend to your will
C7C7       C minorCm
I'll keep them still.

[Verse 2]

E minor 7Em7
Drink up baby,
C9C9
Look at the stars.
     Gmaj7Gmaj7
I'll kiss you again
  D6D6
Between the bars.
   E minor 7Em7
I keep seeing you there,
   C9C9
With your hands in the air
  Gmaj7Gmaj7    BMaj7Bmaj7  Cmaj7Cmaj7
Waiting to finally be caught.
E minor 7Em7
Drink up one more time,
 C9C9
And I'll make you mine.
  Gmaj7Gmaj7
Keep you apart,
D6D6
Deep in my heart.
E minor 7Em7
Separate from the rest
C9C9
Where I like you the best
  Gmaj7Gmaj7   BMaj7Bmaj7   Cmaj7Cmaj7
And keep the things you forgot.


[Chorus]

C7C7   D7D7
The people
E minorEm   1
You've been before that you
C7C7   D7D7
Don't want
E minorEm
Around any more
   C7C7     D7D7
They push, and shove
E minorEm          C7C7
And won't bend to your will
C7C7       C minorCm
I'll keep them still.
C minorCm
