Between The Bars

Elliott Smith

Text File

This is the same song but in a higher key, cuz it can be a bit low. 
And it's easier, in my opinion.


Verse 1

Dm7
Drink up baby
Bb
stay up all night
F			         F/E
the things you could do, you won't but you might
   Dm7
the potential you'll be
      Bb
but you'll never see
     F	         A     Bb
the promises you'll only make
Dm7
drink up with me now
      Bb
and forget all about
     F		      F/E
the pressure of days, do what I say
Dm7
and I'll make you ok
    Bb
and drive them away
     F           A         Bb
the image is stuck in your head

Chorus:


Bb   C   Dm
people you've been before
	     Bbm/C#    C        Dm7/B
that you  don't    want   around anymore
      Bb        C              Dm
that push and shove and won't bend to your will
Bb               Bbm
I'll keep them still


Verse 2:

Dm7
drink up baby
 Bb
look at the stars
     F              F/E
I'll kiss you again between the bars
	     Dm7
where I'm seeing you there
	     Bb
with your hands in the air
  F	      A          Bb
waiting to finally be caught
     Dm7
drink up one more time
    Bb
and I'll make you mine
 F		     F/E
keep you apart, deep in my heart
     Dm7
separate from the rest
          Bb
where I like you the best
    F        A            Bb
and keep the things you forgot
