Shake It Out (Acoustic) - Florence + the Machine

Shake it out, shake it out God, I need another and another and another and another I could feel it now How I felt the Lord in my father's house And I can see, I can see Standing, we were seventeen, make it clean Are you the living ghost of what I need? Are you getting the best of me? We will see 'Cause I'm done being done with a funeral At least for now Are you tired of being alone? Are you tired of being alone? Shake it out, shake it out Tired of another and another wasn't really what I wanted So we bled it out Over the floor of my neighbor's house And I could see, I could see God, I've never seen a thing so complete I am the living ghost of what you need I am everything eternally God, just speak 'Cause I'm done being done with a funeral At least for now Are you tired of being alone? Are you tired of being alone? So speak to me Oh God, you got to shake it out, shake it out You got to take it out, take it down I've go to come around I need it now more than I ever have Oh God, you've got to shake it out, shake it out You've got to break it down, break it out You've got to come around I feel it now more than I ever have I felt the lord begin To peel off all my skin And I felt the weight within Reveal a bigger mess That you can't fix I swear, I swear I'll go Lead me into my home Don't stop, don't ever go I swear you'll never know You'll never know Oh god, you got to shake it out, shake it out You've got to break it down, break it out

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 I can never leave the past behind I can see no way, I can see no way I'm always dragging that horse around Our love has pastured such a mournful sound Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground I like to keep my issues drawn But it's always darkest before the dawn Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh woah And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him off, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out 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 Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh woah And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him off, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back Given half the chance would I take any of it back? It's a fine romance but it's left me so undone It's always darkest before the dawn 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 a devil in me Looking for heaven, found a devil in me But what the hell, I'm gonna let it happen to me Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, yeah And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him off, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, oh woah And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him off, oh woah Shake it out, shake it out Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out (ooh) Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out (ooh) And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him off (ooh) Shake it out, shake it out Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out (ooh) Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out (ooh) And it's hard to dance with the devil on your back So shake him off (ooh) Shake it out, shake it out (ooh) Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out
