Shake It Out Tab

by Tilly And The Wall


Intro

                       
The sun has passed from overhead
                                                      
Let the night come in, let the night walk through your door
                     
For every sleep spent in our beds
                                           
We will push our feet so hard the room will tear
                                     
In the carnival with smiles our faces glow
                               
Oh the dark can make us feel so bold
                                          
There’s no cold to make us want to stay at home
              
Every doubt in turn explodes

Chorus:

                       
We all could pass right through
                           
We all have nothing left to lose

Verse 2:

                      
It’s not the fire, nor the warm drink
                                      
That heats my heart and lifts my happy legs
                    
Your strong hand has kept me here
                                       
No I will not go, no I will not say goodnight
                                            
I was told this town’s so small it would not grow
                                 
I was told that here I would feel alone
                                             
There’s no cold, nor snow to make us lose our souls
                  
Light we shine and once we fall

Chorus:

                           
And we all could pass right through 
                           
We all have nothing left to lose
                       
We hold the best nights true
                                
With all there’s nothing left to lose

                                 
We’re all alive as we tumble over hours
                                     
We pull our hand in close so our faces blur
                                        
There’s nothing we have left we cannot try
                      
So come on baby let’s dance
                 
Put your body in motion
                     
I don’t want this to end
                 
I don’t want to climb those stairs and go to bed
         
So let’s dance
(Won’t you please just try?)
                 
Put your body in motion
(To dance with me tonight)
                     
I don’t want this to end
(To dance with me tonight)
              
Don’t want to climb the stairs and go to bed
         
So let’s dance
(So slide your left foot in and keep your right foot out)
                 
Put your body in motion
(Turn your hips to the left, swing it all
the way around)
                   
Don’t want this to end
(Bob your head back and forth side to side)
              
Don’t want to climb the stairs and go to bed
(Bob your head, shake it out)

End on A
