The Cut That Always Bleeds chords by Conan Gray

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
     C      G
"I don't love you anymore"
     Am       F
A pretty line that I adore
   C        G    Am   Asus4
Five words that I've heard before
      C      G
'Cause you keep me on a rope
       Am        F
And tied a noose around my throat
    C       G   Am   Asus4
You're gone then back at my door

Pre-Chorus:
         C                 Em
'Cause if you're gonna leave, better leave, better do it fast
   Am              F
Can't live a little longer sitting on your lap
    C                   Em
'Cause you know what you're doin' when you're comin' back
  Am             F
And I don't wanna have another heart attack


Chorus:
  N.C.
Oh, I can't be your lover on a leash
         Am    F
Every other week, when you please
  C Em   Am   F          C
Oh, I can't be the kiss that you don't need
  Em        Am
The lie between your teeth


Post-Chorus:
  F        C
The cut that always bleeds
Em   Am
(Ah-ah-ah)
  F        C
The cut that always bleeds
Em   Am    F
(Ah-ah-ah)


Verse 2:
    C       Em
Say you love somebody new
       Am         F
Then beat my heart to black and blue
     C        Em      Am    F
Then they leave, and it's me you come back to (Ah-ah)
      C      Em
To say you loved me all along
       Am          F
And kiss the bruises 'til they're gone
   C           Em          Am    F
Bittersweet, 'cause I can't breathe inside your arms


Pre-Chorus:
         C                 Em
'Cause if you're gonna leave, better leave, better do it fast
   Am              F
Can't live another minute bleedin' from my back
    C                  Em
'Cause I don't have another one for you to stab
  Am             F
And I don't wanna have another heart attack


Chorus:
  N.C.
Oh, I can't be your lover on a leash
         Am    F
Every other week, when you please
  C Em   Am   F          C
Oh, I can't be the kiss that you don't need
  Em        Am
The lie between your teeth


Post-Chorus:
  F        C
The cut that always bleeds
Em   Am
(Ah-ah-ah)
  F        C
The cut that always bleeds
Em   Am  F
(Ah-ah-ah)


Bridge:
C   Em      Am         F
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) But even though you're killing me, yeah
C   Em     Am        F
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) I need you like the air I breathe
 C        Em
I need, I need you more than me
 Am         F
I need you more than anything
C Em  Am F
Please, please


Outro:
N.C.               C
'Cause I could be your lover on a leash
Em      Am       F
Every other week, when you please
  C Em   Am F      C
Oh, I could be anything you need
  Em         Am
As long as you don't leave
  F
