--Capo 3rd Fret--
Drink up, baby, stay up all night.
With the things you could do,
You won't but you might.
The potential you'll be,
That you'll never see,
The promises you'll only make.
Drink up with me now,
And forget all about
The pressure of days.
Do what I say,
And I'll make you okay,
And drive them away
The images stuck in your head
*
People you've been before
That you don't want around anymore—
*
That push and shove and won't bend to your will.
I’ll keep them still.
Drink up, baby, look at the stars.
I'll kiss you again
Between the bars,
Where I'm seeing you there,
With your hands in the air,
Waiting to finally be caught.
Drink up one more time,
And I'll make you mine.
Keep you apart,
Deep in my heart,
Separate from the rest,
Where I like you the best,
And keep the things you forgot.
*
The people you've been before
That you don't want around anymore—
*
That push and shove and won't bend to your will.
I'll keep them still.
* Riff to be played when indicated
