Cage The Elephant – Shake Me Down (Album: Thank You, Happy Birthday) (2011)
A | C#m | A | C#m
Shake me down, Not a lot of people left around,
Who knows now, Softly laying on the ground, ooooh
Not a lot people left around, ooooh. ooooh
A | C#m | F#m | Bm
In my life, I have seen, People walk into the sea,
Just to find memories, Plagued by constant misery,
Their eyes cast down, Fixed upon the ground,
Their eyes cast down
CHORUS: E
I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the sun
A | C#m | A | C#m
Shake me down, Cut my hair on a silver cloud,
Broken sound, Softly laying on the ground, ooooh
Not a lot people left around, ooooh, ooooh
A | C#m | F#m | Bm
In my past, bittersweet, There’s no love between the sheets,
Taste the blood, broken dreams, Lonely times indeed,
With eyes cast down, Fixed upon the ground,
Eyes cast down
[CHORUS]
Bridge: [Riff 2]: A, A, G#, F#m, E
E A, G#, F#m, E
Turn back now its time for me to let go,
Way down had to find a place to lay low,
E
Lampshade turned around into a light post
Bridge: [Riff 3]: ( A, C#m, G# ) x3, F#m
E | G# | A | A
Walk around the corner, Never saw it coming still,
I try to make a move, It almost stopped me from belief,
I don’t wanna know the future, But I’m like rolling thunder
D | A | E | F#m
Even on a cloudy day, Even on a cloudy day,
Even on a cloudy day, Even on a cloudy day,
E
I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the- (x2)
I’ll keep my eyes fixed on the sun
A | C#m | A | C#m
Shake me down, Not a lot of people left around,
Ooooh, Ooooh
