Shake It Out

[Verse]
E
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
A
I can see no way, I can see no way
E  
And all of the ghouls

come out to play

C#m          A        
  And every demon wants
              E
his pound of flesh
              B    
  But I like to keep
                  C#m
some things to myself
           A             F#m
I like to keep my issues strong
             A  
It's always darkest

before the dawn

[Verse]
E  
And I've been a fool

and I've been blind
                              A
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
E  
I'm always dragging

that horse around

C#m               A     
  And our love is passed,
                        E
it's such a mournful sound
                   B   
  Tonight I'm gonna bury
                     C#m
that horse in the ground
              A              F#m
So I like to keep my issues strong
                 A  
But it's always darkest

before the dawn

[Chorus]
E  
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
A  
And it's hard to dance

with a devil on your back
              E
So shake him off, oh woah

[Verse]
C#m    A                      E
I am done with my graceless heart
                      B  
  So tonight I'm gonna cut
                     C#m
it out and then restart
                 A  
  Cause I like to keep
             F#m
my issues strong
             A  
It's always darkest

before the dawn

[Chorus]
E  
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
A  
And it's hard to dance

with a devil on your back
              E
So shake him off, oh woah

[Verse]
C#m                     
  And it's hard to dance
         A
with a devil on your back
E                         
  And given half the chance
          B
would I take any of it back
C#m                    
  It's a final mess but
       A
it's left me so undone
F#m            A    
  It's always darkest
             E
before the dawn

E
Oh woah, oh woah...

[Bridge]
F#m  
And I'm damned if I do

and I'm damned if I don't
C#m                         
  So here's to drinks in the
             B
dark at the end of my road
F#m  
And I'm ready to suffer

and I'm ready to hope
C#m                      
  It's a shot in the dark
      B
and right at my throat
A  
Cause looking for heaven,

for the devil in me
C#m                  
  Looking for heaven,
           B
for the devil in me
A  
Well what the hell I'm

gonna let it happen to me

[Chorus]
E  
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
A  
And it's hard to dance

with a devil on your back
E
So shake him off, oh woah

[Chorus]
E  
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
A  
And it's hard to dance

with a devil on your back
E
So shake him off, oh woah

[Outro]
E
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
A        E
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
E
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
A        E
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
