F Regrets collect like old friends Here to relive your darkest moments A# I can see no way, I can see no way F And all of the ghouls come out to play Dm A# F And every demon wants his pound of flesh C Dm But I like to keep some things to myself A# Gm I like to keep my issues drawn A# It's always darkest before the dawn And I've been a fool and I've been blind I can never leave the past behind I can see no way, I can see no way I'm always dragging that horse around All of his questions, such a mournful sound Tonight, I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground 'Cause I like to keep my issues drawn But it's always darkest before the dawn Chorus: F 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 A# And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back F So shake him off, oh woah 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 Chorus And it's hard to dance With a devil on your back (Shake him off) And given half the chance Would I take any of it back? (Shake him off) It's a fine romance But it's left me so undone (Shake him off) It's always darkest before the dawn (Shake him off) (Oh-woah) (Oh-woah) 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 rope And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope It's a shot in the dark aimed right at my throat 'Cause looking for Heaven, found the devil in me (Oh-woah) Looking for Heaven, found the devil in me (Oh-woah) But, what the hell, I'm gonna let it happen to me, yeah Chorus - x2 You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  C  Dm  F  Gm  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
