Shake it off - Taylor Swift

  • This excellent pop song only has three chords!

  • Take care with the G chord (it's tricky!)

  • Enjoy and have as much fun as Taylor and her 'Swifties!'

 

 

Intro-
G 
              
                      Am
I stay out too late
                            C 
Got nothing in my brain
                               G
That's what people say, mmm                   
That's what people say, mmm
 
                           Am
I go on too many dates
                                C
But I can't make 'em stay
                                             G
At least that's what people say, mmm                     
That's what people say, mmm
 
                Am
But I keep cruisin' 
                                  C
Can't stop won't stop moving 
                          G
It's like I got this music in my mind
Saying it's gonna be alright
 
                 Am
Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
              C
And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate baby
                      G              
I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake it off, I shake it off
 
          Am
Heart breakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
              C
And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake baby
                G
I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
Shake it off, I shake it off
