[Verse 1]

Fought across the border wars

Fought across our destiny

We shot across the stratosphere

The thin air bothered me

I looked around that whole damn place

For somewhere to lay my head

Then a man in the hood come shoulder me

Said, "You wishin' you was dead?"

[Pre-Chorus]

Shake your bag o' bones

When nobody's home

Shake your bag o' bones

And you'll never be alone

Move your head with the dancin' dead

Get in the game and play

Shake your bonеs wherever you roam

Bе the one who got away, hey

[Refrain]

All right

Yeah, shake it

Whoa

[Chorus]

Long way from home wherever you may roam

Take along and shake that bag o' bones

[Verse 2]

I packed my shit and headed east

Where the sun was set to rise

They sent me west with all their best

No disgrace, compromise

I looked around that whole damn place

While the sun set on my face

Then the man in the hood come shoulder me

Said, "You come for another taste, boy?"

[Pre-Chorus]

Shake your bag o' bones

When nobody's home

Shake your bag o' bones

And you'll never be alone

Move your head with the dancin' dead

Get in the game and play

Shake your bones wherever you roam

Be the one who got away, hey

[Chorus]

Long way from home wherever you may roam

Take along and shake that bag o' bones

Long way from home and you'll never be alone

Take along and shake that bag o' bones

[Interlude]

[Bridge 1]

Keeping my pace, the long, winding road

Grab that bag of bones, now shake it

Grab that bag of bones, now shake it

Sun on my face, the road full of bones

Grab that bag of bones, now shake it

Grab that bag of bones, now shake it

[Bridge 2]

All of his horses, all of his men

All of his bones together again

All of his bones are together again

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

Shake your bag o' bones

When nobody's home

Shake your bag o' bones

And you'll never be alone

Move your head with the dancin' dead

Get in the game and play

Shake your bones wherever you roam

Be the one who got away, hey

[Refrain]

That's right

Shake, shake it

Shake, shake

[Chorus]

Long way from home wherever you may roam

Take along and shake that bag o' bones

Long way from home and you'll never be alone

Take along and shake that bag o' bones

[Outro]

Shake

Shake it

Shake
