Elliott Smith - Between The Barsadd

Cm7              G#
Drink up, baby, stay up all night.
           D#
With the things you could do,
     G7
You won't but you might.
       Cm7
The potential you'll be,
       G#
That you'll never see,
      D#        G7         G#
The promises you'll only make.
      Cm7
Drink up with me now,
        G#
And forget all about
       D#
The pressure of days.
G7
Do what I say,
          Cm7
And I'll make you okay,
      G#
And drive them away
      D#      G7            G#
The images stuck in your head
G#   A#    *
People you've been before
          G#     A#     Cm     Cm/A
That you don't want around anymore—
      G#         A#        *
That push and shove and won't bend to your will.
G#                 G#m
  I’ll keep them still.
Cm7               G#
Drink up, baby, look at the stars.
      D#
I'll kiss you again
G7
Between the bars,
            Cm7
Where I'm seeing you there,
            G#
With your hands in the air,
D#            G7         G#
Waiting to finally be caught.
      Cm7
Drink up one more time,
     G#
And I'll make you mine.
D#
Keep you apart,
G7
Deep in my heart,
      Cm7
Separate from the rest,
         G#
Where I like you the best,
      D#       G7          G#
And keep the things you forgot.
        A#    *
The people you've been before
          G#     A#     Cm     Cm/A
That you don't want around anymore—
       G#       A#         *
That push and shove and won't bend to your will.
G#                  G#m
  I'll keep them still.
