Between The Bars Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Elliott Smith
[Verse 1]

Am*             F*
Drink up baby, stay up all night
            C
With the things you could do
      G
You won't but you might
      Am*                      F*
The potential you'll be that you'll never see
     C         E          F
The promises you'll only make
      Am*               F*
Drink up with me now, forget all about
      C               G
The pressure of days do what I say
          Am*                F*
And I'll make you okay and drive them away
      C     E             F
The images stuck in your head


[Chorus]

     F  G    Am** 
The people you've been before
           F    G     Am
That you don't want around anymore
      F         G              Am**
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
 F              Fm
I'll keep them still


[Verse 2]

 Am*              F*
Drink up baby, look at the stars
      C              G
I'll kiss you again between the bars
            Am*                       F*
Where I'm seeing you there with your hands in the air
  C           E         F
Waiting to finally be caught
      Am*                    F*
Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine
 C               G
Keep you apart, deep in my heart
  Am*                            F*
Separate from the rest, where I like you the best
     C        E           F
And keep the things you forgot


[Chorus]

     F  G    Am**
The people you've been before
          F     G     Am
That you don't want around anymore
      F        G               Am**
That push and shove and won't bend to your will
 F              Fm
I'll keep them still
