Cage The ElephantShake 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
