🎶 Shake It Out

[Em]Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments[B#]
I can see no way, I can see no way
[Em]And all of the ghouls come out to play[Eb]
And every [B#]demon wants his pound of [Em]flesh
But I like to keep[A#] some things to myself[Eb]
I like to keep[B#] my issues drawn[Eb]
It's always [B#]darkest before the [Em]dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind[B#]
I can see no way, I can see no way
[Em]I'm always dragging that horse around[Eb]
Our love is [B#]pastured, such a mournful [Em]sound
Tonight I'm gonna [A#]bury that horse in the [Eb]ground
So I like to keep[B#] my issues [Eb]drawn
But it's always [B#]darkest before the [Em]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
[B#]And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him [Em]off, oh whoa

[Eb]And I am done[B#] with my graceless [Em]heart
So tonight I'm gonna [A#]cut it out and then restart[Eb]
'Cause I like to [B#]keep my issues [Eb]drawn
It's always [B#]darkest before the [Em]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
[B#]And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him [Em]off, oh whoa

[Eb]And it's hard to dance with a [B#]devil on your back
[Em]And given half the chance would I [A#]take any of it back[Eb]
It's a fine romance but it's [B#]left me so undone
[F#]It's always [B#]darkest before the [Em]dawn

Oh whoa, oh whoa...

[F#]And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
[Eb]So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my [A#]road
[F#]And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
[Eb]It's a shot in the dark aimed [A#]right at my throat
'Cause [B#]looking for heaven, found the devil in me[A#]
[Eb]Looking for heaven, found the [A#]devil in me
Well [F#]what the hell I'm gonna let it [B#]happen to me, yeah[A#]

[Em]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
[B#]And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off,[Em] 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
[B#]And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off,[Em] oh whoa⠀⠀
