Shake It Out


Original by Florence & The Machine
KEY: FF

Regrets collect like old friends

Here to relive your darkest moments

I can see no way, I can see no way

And all of the ghouls come out to play

DmDm     Bb majorBb            FF
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
        C majorC            DmDm
But I like to keep some things to myself
      Bb majorBb       G minorGm
I like to keep my issues drawn
       Bb majorBb     C majorC      FF
It’s always darkest before the dawn

FF
And I’ve been a fool and I’ve been blind
                 Bb majorBb
I can never leave the past behind

I can see no way, I can see no way
FF                DmDm
I’m always dragging that horse around

       Bb majorBb            FF
All of his questions, such a mournful sound
          C majorC           DmDm
Tonight I’m gonna bury that horse in the ground
       Bb majorBb       G minorGm
So I like to keep my issues drawn
         Bb majorBb    C majorC      FF
But it’s always darkest before the dawn

FF
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Bb majorBb
It’s hard to dance

With a devil on your back
        FF
So shake him off, oh woah

DmDm    Bb majorBb           FF
And I am done with my graceless heart
           C majorC            DmDm
So tonight I’m gonna cut it out and then restart
         Bb majorBb       G minorGm
’Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
      Bb majorBb     C majorC      FF
It’s always darkest before the dawn

FF
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Bb majorBb
It’s hard to dance

With a devil on your back
       FF
So shake him off, oh woah

DmDm
And it’s hard to dance
    Bb majorBb
With a devil on your back
FF
And given half the chance
         C majorC
Would I take any of it back?
DmDm             Bb majorBb
It’s a final mess but it’s left me so empty
G minorGm      Bb majorBb    C majorC      FF
It’s always darkest before the dawn

FF
Oh woah, oh woah

G minorGm
And I’m damned if I do

And I’m damned if I don’t
DmDm
So here’s to drinks in the dark
    C majorC
At the end of my road
G minorGm
And I’m ready to suffer

And I’m ready to hope
DmDm
It’s a shot in the dark
   C majorC
Aimed right at my throat
    Bb majorBb
’Cause looking for heaven,
           C majorC
Found the devil in me
DmDm
Looking for heaven,
     C majorC
Found the devil in me
   G minorGm
Well, what the hell
      A minorAm    Bb majorBb   C majorC
I’m gonna let it happen to me

FF
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out,

Oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out,

Oh woah

Bb majorBb
It’s hard to dance

With a devil on your back
       FF
So shake him off, oh woah

FF
Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

Shake it out, shake it out

Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

C majorC
It’s hard to dance

With a devil on your back
       FF
So shake him off, oh woah
