Shake It Out by Florence And The Machine
Shake It Out
F
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
Bb
I can see no way, I can see no way
F
And all of the ghouls come out to play
Dm Bb F
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
C Dm
But I like to keep some things to myself
Bb Gm
I like to keep my issues strong
Bb
It's always darkest before the dawn
F
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
Bb
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
F
I'm always dragging that horse around
Dm Bb F
And our love is passed, it's such a mournful sound
C Dm
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
Bb Gm
So I like to keep my issues strong
Bb
But it's always darkest before the dawn
F
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaaah
Bb
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
F
So shake him off, oh woah
Dm Bb F
I am done with my graceless heart
C Dm
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
Bb Gm
Cause I like to keep my issues strong
Bb
It's always darkest before the dawn
F
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Bb
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
F
So shake him off, oh woah
Dm Bb
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
F C
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
Dm Bb
It's a final mess but it's left me so undone
Gm Bb F
It's always darkest before the dawn
F
Oh woah, oh woah...
Gm
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
Dm C
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
Gm
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
Dm C
It's a shot in the dark and right at my throat
Bb
Cause looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Dm C
Looking for heaven, for the devil in me
(Bb)
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me
F
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Bb
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
F
So shake him off, oh woah
F
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Bb
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
F
So shake him off, oh woah
