Whole Step Down Tuning: D G C F A D
[Intro]
N.C.
Regrets collect like old friends
N.C
Here to relive your darkest moments
N.C.
I can see no way, I can see no way
N.C.
And all of the ghouls come out to play
[Verse 1]
Gm D#m A#
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
Fm Gm
But I like to keep some things to myself
D#m Cm
I like to keep my issues drawn
D#m A#
It's always darkest before the dawn
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
D#m
I can never leave the past behind
A#
I can see no way, I can see no way
Gm
I'm always dragging that horse around
D#m A#
Our love is pastured, such a mournful sound
Fm Gm
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
D#m Cm
So I like to keep my issues drawn
D#m A#
But it's always darkest before the dawn
[Chorus]
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
A#
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
D#m
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
A#
So shake him off, oh whoa
[Verse 2]
Gm D#m A#
And I am done with my graceless heart
Fm Gm
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
D#m Cm
'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
D#m A#
It's always darkest before the dawn
[Chorus]
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
A#
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
D#m
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
A#
So shake him off, oh whoa
[Bridge]
Gm D#m
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
A# Fm Gm
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
D#m Cm
It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone
D#m A# Fm D#m Gm
It's always darkest before the dawn
Cm Gm
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
Fm
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
Cm Gm
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
Fm
It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat
D#m Fm
'Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me
Gm Fm
'Cause looking for heaven, found the devil in me
D#m Fm Gm Fm
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me, yeah
[Outro]
A#
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
A#
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
D#m
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
A#
So shake him off, oh whoa
A#
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
A#
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh whoa
D#m
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
A#
So shake him off, oh whoa
