The Shake

	  		
Intro 
B              G            B 
The scratching of paper and pen 
           B             G           B 
reminds me of a song I wrote two years back 
B               G          B 
I remember each and every line 
       B                  G            B 
like a photo glued to the lids of my eyes 

C           A

B            G            B 
The shiver of my wheezing chest 
           B            G               B 
reminds me of the way I felt two years back 
B            G              B 
And as we lose all track of time 
           B               G                 B 
I feel her breathe like ice on the tip of my spine 


C 
The shake before I sleep 
A 
the shake before I sleep 
G                A 
the shake before I sleep 
C 
The shake before I sleep 
A

G                A        C 
the shake before I sleep 


B              G           B 
I wait for the bed to get warm 
         B                G            B 
as my eyes adjust to the darkest light form 
B            G          B 
And as I start to drift away 
           B                  G              B 
you're the shake that pulls me back to this state 

C 
The shake before I sleep 
A

G                A 
the shake before I sleep

The shake before I sleep

G                A 
the shake before I sleep
