Chords used:
 
Break:
C
Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
F
I can see no way, I can see no way
C
And all of the ghouls come out to play
 
Verse:
Am          F                     C
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
              G                     Am
But I like to keep some things to myself
           F             Dm
I like to keep my issues strong
             F
It's always darkest before the dawn
 
Break:
C
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
                              F
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
C
I'm always dragging that horse around
 
Verse:
Am            F                            C
All of his questions, it's such a mournful song
                   G                       Am
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
              F              Dm
So I like to keep my issues strong
                 F             (G)
But it's always darkest before the dawn
 
Chorus:
C
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
F
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
              C        (C/B)
So shake him off, oh woah
 
Verse:
Am    F                      C
I am done with my graceless heart
                      G                      Am
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
                 F              Dm
Cause I like to keep my issues strong
             F              (G)
It's always darkest before the dawn
 
Chorus:
C
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
F
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
              C       (C/B)
So shake him off, oh woah
 
Verse:
Am                             F
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
C                                  G
And given half the chance would I take any of it back
Am                            F
It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone
Dm            F       (G)       C
It's always darkest before the dawn
 
Bridge:
Dm
And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
Am                                     G
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
Dm
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
Am                           G
It's a shot in the dark and right at my throat
F                            (G)
Cause looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Am                            G
Looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Dm                           Am     F         G   C         F
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me  yeah yeah yeah yeah 
 
Chorus:
C
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
F
And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
C
So shake him off, oh woah
 
Chorus:
C
But what the hell,  what the hell, what the hell
But what the hell,  what the hell, what the hell
F
But what the hell,  what the hell, what the hell
C
But what the hell,  what the hell
