[Chorus]
Cm
I'm feeling guarded,
D# Cm
I woke up with a suit of armour on my body,
D# Cm
And I know I put it on myself,
D# Cm D#
And only I can take it off.
[Verse 1]
Cm
It makes me heavy,
D# Cm
I'm struggling to rise and greet the day,
D# Cm
And I don't like it when I'm like this,
D# Cm
But it's not easy to shake away,
D# Cm D#
It's not easy.

[Verse 2]
Cm
I wear this armour,
D# Cm D#
For I'm afraid that I might be disarmed,
Cm
And if I am not careful,
D# Cm
I may be hurt,
D#
And I may be harmed.
[Verse 3]
Cm D#
Oh of course I want to trust you but I,
Cm D#
Have reason to be concerned,
Cm D#
I'm confused by men's behaviour and I,
Cm D#
Won't be tricked and I won't be burned,
D# Cm13
No I won't be.
[Interlude]

Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake,

Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake,
Cm13 D#
Shake, shake, shake, shake, shake.

[Chorus]
Cm
So, I'm feeling guarded,
D# Cm
I woke up with a suit of armour on my body,
D# Cm
And I know I put it on myself,
D# Cm D#
And only I can take it off.
[Verse 4]
Cm
It makes me heavy,
D# Cm
I'm struggling to rise and greet the day,
D# Cm
And I don't like it when I'm like this,
D# Cm
But it's not easy to shake away,
D# Cm13
It's not easy.
