(wonderful cover by Madeleine Peyroux)

Other tabs seems to much complex...
To me this song can be simply done like this:

standard tuning - tempo 3/4

Em


Em             C
Drink up baby, stay up all night
         G                        B7
with the things you could do, you wont but you might.
    Em                       C
The potential you'll be, but you'll never see.
    G        B7        C
The promises you only make.


      Em                     C
Drink up with me now, and forget all about
    G                 B7
the pressure of days, do what I say,
         Em                 C
and I'll make you okay, and drive them away,
    G      B7            C
the images stuck in your head.


CHORUS:

C   D         Em                   C      D     Em
People you've been before that you dont - want around anymore,
     C        D              Em           C
that push and shove and wont bend to your will,
               Cm
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.
Seperate from the rest, where I like you the best,
and keep the thing you forgot

CHORUS:

People you've been before that you dont - want around anymore,
that push and shove and wont bend to your will,
ill keep them still.
