Shake The Ache chords by Eric Heatherly

Tuning: EADGBE

Verse 1:
          D
There's a naked light bulb hangin' ove my head.

Nothin' but a shadow on your side of the bed.
       G                                                       D
I been talkin' to the walls but we're running out of things to say.

Verse 2:
        D
I don't wanna toss and turn another night.

I need a crowd of people, some neon light.
G                                                 D
Smoke so thick you choke, jokes but there hard to take.

Pre-Chorus:
   A
It ain't no laughin' matter,
        G                     D
I'll do anything to shake the ache.

Chorus:
       G               D
When I said goodbye to you,
        G               A
I broke my own heart in two.

Verse 3:
D
All I really need to start a new romance,

is tequila and a pretty girl that likes to dance.
            G                                       D
And let the good times roll, but I know I'd hit the brake.

Pre-Chorus 2:
        A
Just as soon as we get rollin'
        G                    D
Cause I just can't shake the ache.

Verse 4:

I opened up the wound and I threw on the salt.

Tried to make you think it was all your fault.
G                                                  D
Sorry that I hurt you, the pain is more than I can take.

Verse 5:
        D
Now the clock is tickin' to loud, the foset drips.

On this love foresaken shell of a sinkin' ship.

It's going down in the middle of a big mistake.

Pre-Chorus 3:

I been swimmin' round in circles
      G                    D
and I just can't shake the ache.

I broke my own heart in two.

I just can't make it.

Sorry that I hurt you
