--Capo 3rd Fret--
[Verse 1]
Drink up, baby
, stay up all
night.
With the thing
s you could do
,
You won't but
you might.
The potential
you'll be,
That you'll ne
ver see,
The promises y
ou'll only mak
e.
Drink up with
me now,
And forget all
about
The pressure o
f days.
Do what I say,
And I'll make
you okay,
And drive them
away
The images stu
ck in your hea
d
[Chorus]
*
People you've
been before
That you don't
want around a
nymore—
That push and
*
shove and won'
t bend to your
will.
I’ll keep th
em still.
[Verse 2]
Drink up, baby
, look at the
stars.
I'll kiss you
again
Between the ba
rs,
Where I'm seei
ng you there,
With your hand
s in the air,
Waiting to fin
ally be caught
.
Drink up one m
ore time,
And I'll make
you mine.
Keep you apart
,
Deep in my hea
rt,
Separate from
the rest,
Where I like y
ou the best,
And keep the t
hings you forg
ot.
[Chorus]
The people you
*
've been befor
e
That you don't
want around a
nymore—
That push and
*
shove and won'
t bend to your
will.
I'll keep th
em still.
