[Intro]
N.C.
My, my, my, my (my, my, my, my)
N.C.
My, my, my, my (my, my, my, my)
C G/B My, my, my, my Am C My, my, my, my F Am My, my, my, my Dm Gsus4 G My, my, my, my
[Chorus 1]
C G/B Am Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts C Flashbacks waking me up F Am I get drunk, but it's not enough Dm Gsus4 G 'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby C G/B Am I look through the windows of this love C Even though we boarded them up F Am Chandelier still flickering here Dm Gsus4 G C 'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not G/B Em F G It's death by a thousand cuts
[Verse 1]
C G/B Em F I dress to kill my time, I take the long way home G I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright, they say, "I don't know" C G/B Em F And what once was ours, is no one's now G I see you everywhere, the only thing we share is this small town C G/B Em F You said it was a great love, one for the ages G But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?
[Chorus 2]
C G/B Am 'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts C Flashbacks waking me up F Am I get drunk, but it's not enough Dm Gsus4 G 'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby C G/B Am I look through the windows of this love C Even though we boarded them up F Am Chandelier still flickering here Dm Gsus4 G C 'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not G/B Em F G It's death by a thousand cuts
[Verse 2]
C G/B My heart, my hips, my body, my love Em F Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch G Gave up on me like I was a bad drug C Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club G/B Our songs, our films, united we stand Em F Our country, guess it was a lawless land G Quiet my fears at the touch of your hand C Paper cut stings from our paper-thin plans G/B My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust Em F Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up G Gave you too much but it wasn't enough C G/B Am G But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts
[Chorus 3]
F Am I get drunk, but it's not enough Dm Gsus4 G 'Cause you're not my baby C G/B Am I look through the windows of this love C Even though we boarded them up F Am Chandelier still flickering here Dm Gsus4 G C 'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not, no it's not G/B Em F G It's death by a thousand cuts (you didn't touch)
[Post-Chorus]
C Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch G/B Em F My body, my love, my trust (it's death by a thousand cuts) G But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
[Outro]
C G/B Am C I take the long way home F Am Dm I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright Gsus4 G N.C. They say, "I don't know"
