Shake It Out (Live)

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

And every demon wants his pound of flesh

But I like to keep some things to myself

I like to keep my issues drawn

It's always darkest before the dawn

And I've been a fool and I've been blind

And I can never leave the past behind

I can see no white I can see no white

I'm always dragging that horse around

Our love is pastured such a mournful sound

But tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground

Cause I like to keep my issues drawn

Cause it's always darkest before the dawn

Shake it out shake it out

Shake it out shake it out

Oh shake it out shake it out

Shake it out shake it out

Oh and it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

So shake him off me

And I am done with my graceless heart

So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart

Cause I like to keep my issues drawn

It's always darkest before the dawn

Oh shake it out shake it out

Shake it out shake it out

Oh and it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

So shake him off oh

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

And given half the chance would I take any

Of it back

It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone

And it's always darkest before the dawn

Oh oh

And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't

So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road

And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope

Shot in the dark aimed right at my throat

Cause looking for heaven found the devil in me yeah

I'm looking for heaven found the devil in me oh

What the hell am I gonna let it happen to me

Yeah

Shake it out shake it out oh whoa

Shake it out shake it out

Shake it out shake it out oh whoa

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

So shake him off oh whoa yeah

Shake it out shake it out

Shake it out shake it out oh

Shake it out shake it out

Shake it out shake it out oh

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back

So shake him off oh

Shake it out shake it out

Shake it out shake it out oh
