Chords

[Intro] G [Verse 1]
Em
  I could be careless and

G                          C
 You couldn't care less at all

                               D
You're kissing me like a ritual
And killing me soft
Em
  Head on a mattress

G                           C
 I'm trying to take back control

                           D
My brain's an emotional picture
I can't turn it off [Pre-Chorus]
    Em                G
The pleasures all mine, mine

     C
I'll go numb next time
[Chorus]
            Em
Why does it hurt so much

      G
Every time we touch

              C                D
You givin' me paper cuts (Ooh, paper cuts)

          Em
Under the surface feels

        G
Like it just won't heal

                C                D
From all of the paper cuts (Ooh, paper cuts)

      Em                                G
I can cover a scar, yeah I'm keeping it cool

          C                                D
Cause the thicker the skin the darker the blue

            Em
Why does it hurt so much

      G
Every time we touch

              C                D
You givin' me paper cuts, ooh, paper cuts
[Verse 2]
Em
  Scenes from the weekend

G                                 C
 We're dressed for the big tent affair

                             D
You fill me with new party favors
High up in the air
Em
  I'm Mr November

G                                 C
 You know I should be fearless by now

                             D
You take me a little too serious
Fighting unfair [Pre-Chorus]
    Em                G
The pleasures all mine, mine

     C
I'll go numb next time
[Chorus]
