[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]
And every [Bb] demon wants his pound of [F] flesh
But I like to keep[C] some things to myself[Dm]
I like to keep[Bb] my issues drawn[Dm]
It's always [Bb] darkest before the [F] dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind[Bb]
I can see no way, I can see no way
[F] I'm always dragging that horse around[Dm]
Our love is [Bb] pastured, such a mournful [F] sound
Tonight I'm gonna [C] bury that horse in the [Dm] ground
So I like to keep[Bb] my issues [Dm] drawn
But it's always [Bb] darkest before the [F] dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
[Bb] And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him [F] off, oh whoa
[Dm] And I am done[Bb] with my graceless [F] heart
So tonight I'm gonna [C] cut it out and then restart[Dm]
'Cause I like to [Bb] keep my issues [Dm] drawn
It's always [Bb] darkest before the [F] dawn
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
[Bb] And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him [F] off, oh whoa
[Dm] And it's hard to dance with a [Bb] devil on your back
[F] And given half the chance would I [C] take any of it back[Dm]
It's a fine romance but it's [Bb] left me so undone
[Gm] It's always [Bb] darkest before the [F] dawn
Oh whoa, oh whoa...
[Gm] And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
[Dm] So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my [C] road
[Gm] And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
[Dm] It's a shot in the dark aimed [C] right at my throat
'Cause [Bb] looking for heaven, found the devil in me[C]
[Dm] Looking for heaven, found the [C] devil in me
Well [Gm] what the hell I'm gonna let it [Bb] happen to me, yeah[C]
[F] Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
[Bb] And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off,[F] oh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
[Bb] And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off,[F] oh whoa
