Take away all my blues Fill me with good news When I'm used and torn You get me thru Nothing could thrill me more than When you're standin' there like before Stripped clear of defenses While your secrets unfold And we're like a river you and I Like a river we're gonna run I can depend on this Handle to hold You give a piece of your soul You pick me up when I get too low You give a piece of your soul My heart beats, my heart beats like a drum My heart beats like a drum When you come Come give a piece of your soul And I don't know what would suprise me more If I saw you standing there like before While your secrets unfold When the hard rain's falling on the ground And the blues start to get you down I know what to do CHORUS Nothing's easy, it's like a storm You give it all and you give some more like blood Sometimes it cuts to the bone You take away all these blues You fill me up with good news When I'm bruised and worn You get me thru CHORUS Gimme shelter from the storm When I'm feeling used and worn I get renewed You give a piece of your soul
