F5
Regrets collect like old friends
Bb5
Here to relive your darkest moments
D5
I can see no way, I can see no way
Bb5
And all of the ghouls come out to play

F5                                       Bb5
And every demon wants his pound of flesh

But I like to keep some things to myself
 D5
I like to keep my issues strong
 Bb5
It's always darkest before the dawn

F5
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
Bb5
I can never leave the past behind
D5
I can see no way, I can see no way
Bb5
I'm always dragging that horse around

F5
And our love is pastured such a mournful sound
Bb5
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
D5
So I like to keep my issues strong
Bb5
But it's always darkest before the dawn

F5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
Bb5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
D5
It's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Bb5
So shake him off, oh woah

F5
And I am done with my graceless heart
Bb5
So tonight i'm gonna cut it out and then restart
D5
Cause I like to keep my issues strong
Bb5
It's always darkest before the dawn

F5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
Bb5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
D5
It's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Bb5
So shake him off, oh woah

F5
It's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Bb5
So shake him off
F5
And given half the chance
Bb5
Would I take any of it back?
D5
It's a final mess but it's left me so empty
Bb5
It's always darkest before the dawn

F5        Bb5
Oh woah, oh woah

F5
And I'm damned if I do

And i'm damned if I don't
Bb5
So here's to drinks in the dark

At the end of my road
D5
And I'm ready to suffer

And I'm ready to hope
Bb5
It's a shot in the dark and right at my throat
F5
'Cause looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Bb5
Looking for heaven, for the devil in me
D5
Well, what the hell
Bb5
I'm gonna let it happen to me

F5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
Bb5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
D5
It's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Bb5
So shake him off, oh woah

F5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
Bb5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
D5
It's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Bb5
So shake him off, oh woah

F5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
Bb5
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
D5
It's hard to dance with a devil on your back
Bb5
So shake him off, oh woah
