Make It Shake

Move the floor and lose your mind for a little while.

Capo 1 — play the shapes in G and it sounds in A♭ major. Much easier than fingering A♭ major straight.
Play Make It Shake

Verse 1

Sun droppin' low, lights comin' on
Whole town buzzin' like a neon song
Parking lot packed, speakers alive
Friday hit hard and the mood's just right
Back gate swingin', boots hittin' dirt
Band tuned up and the amps at work
Everybody here for the same damn thing
Feel that beat and let it ring

Pre-Chorus

Hands up high, let the night wake up
If you came to move, then move with us

Chorus

Come on, make it shake, shake, shake
Move that floor, make that heartbeat break
Turn this night into somethin' wild
Lose your mind for a little while
Make it shake, shake, shake
Like the whole world's gonna feel this place
If the band's on fire and the crowd's all in
Come on, make it shake again

Verse 2

Girl spun round when the chorus hit
Hair fallin' down and she was into it
Whole place jumpin', hands in the air
Summer heat and electricity everywhere
Bass line hittin' right through your chest
One of those nights you don't forget
Ain't no clock, ain't no slowin' down
We're too far gone to stop now

Pre-Chorus

Hands up high, let the night wake up
If you came to move, then move with us

Chorus

Come on, make it shake, shake, shake
Move that floor, make that heartbeat break
Turn this night into somethin' wild
Lose your mind for a little while
Make it shake, shake, shake
Like the whole world's gonna feel this place
If the band's on fire and the crowd's all in
Come on, make it shake again

Bridge

One more round, one more song
Keep this thing rollin' all night long
Ain't goin' home till the lights come on
Keep that fire burnin' strong

Final Chorus

Come on, make it shake, shake, shake
Move that floor, make that whole place break
Turn this night into history
Right here, right now, you and me
Make it shake, shake, shake
Let this town remember this place
If the band's on fire and the crowd's all in
Come on, make it shake again

Generated from the chord chart. These are real guitar shapes for the chords we detected, not a transcription of what was played on the record.
Raw note map (experimental)

This is the unfiltered pitch detection across the whole mix — vocals, bass and drums included — mapped onto a fretboard. It is not a playable arrangement and no one should try to read it as one. It is here only because it is the raw material everything else was built from.
