Key: F

Introduction:

Dm                      Bb                                                            F  
And every demon wants his pound of flesh
                                        C                                                              Dm  
But I like to keep some things to myself
                             Bb                                    Gm  
I like to keep my issues drawn
                                  Bb                      C                            F  
It's always darkest before the dawn
F  
And I've been a fool and I've been blind
                                                                                        Bb  
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
F                                                                                    Dm  
I'm always dragging that horse around
                                  Bb                                                              F  
All of his questions, such a mournful sound
                                                  C                                                         Dm  
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
                                     Bb                                 Gm  
So I like to keep my issues drawn
                                             Bb                    C                              F  
But it's always darkest before the dawn
F  
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
Bb  
It's hard to dance
With a devil on your back
                                        F  
So shake him off, oh woah
Dm                    Bb                                                      F  
And I am done with my graceless heart
                                                        C                                                            Dm  
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
                                                Bb                                 Gm  
'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn
                                Bb                      C                              F  
It's always darkest before the dawn
F  
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah
Bb  
It's hard to dance
With a devil on your back
                                     F  
So shake him off, oh woah
Dm  
And it's hard to dance
                     Bb  
With a devil on your back
F  
And given half the chance
                                             C  
Would I take any of it back?
Dm                                                                 Bb  
It's a final mess but it's left me so empty
Gm                            Bb                    C                              F  
It's always darkest before the dawn
F  
Oh woah, oh woah
Gm  
And I'm damned if I do
And I'm damned if I don't
Dm  
So here's to drinks in the dark
                     C  
At the end of my road
Gm  
And I'm ready to suffer
And I'm ready to hope
Dm  
It's a shot in the dark
                C  
Aimed right at my throat
                  Bb  
'Cause looking for heaven,
                                                          C  
Found the devil in me
Dm  
Looking for heaven,
                          C  
Found the devil in me
                Gm  
Well, what the hell
                             Am                    Bb            C  
I'm gonna let it happen to me
F  
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out,
Bb  
It's hard to dance
With a devil on your back
                                     F  
So shake him off, oh woah
F  
Shake it out, shake it out
Shake it out, shake it out, oh woah

It's hard to dance
With a devil on your back
                                  F  
So shake him off, oh woah
