 Verse:
                 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 them stay
                               G
 At least that's what people say, mmm
 That's what people say, mmm
 Pre-Chorus:
              Am
 But I keep cruising
                         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
 Chorus:
            Am
 Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play
          C
 And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate
       G
 Baby I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
 Shake it off, shake it off
        Am
 Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break
          C
 And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake
       G
 Baby I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake
 Shake it off, shake it off
 Verse:
                 Am
 I never miss a beat
                      C
 I'm lightning on my feet
                             G
 And that's what they don't see, mmm
 That's what they don't see, mmm
                    Am
 I'm dancing on my own
                           C
 I make the moves up as I go
                              G
 And that's what they don't know, mmm
 That's what they don't know, mmm
 Pre-Chorus:
              Am
 But I keep cruising
                          C
 Can't stop, won't stop grooving
                       G
 It's like I got this music
 In my mind, saying it's gonna be alright
 Chorus:
