Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:

C C/B Am7 G
C C/B Fsus4 G

Chorus:
C         C/B         Am7
Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
       G
Flashbacks waking me up
C           C/B
I get drunk, but it's not enough
       Fsus4          G
’Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
C           C/B      Am7
I look through the windows of this love
          G
Even though we boarded them up
C           C/B
Chandelier's still flickering here
     Fsus4        G       C   G
’Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
             F  G
It's death by a thousand cuts

Verse 1:
C            C/B
I dress to kill my time, I take the long way home
Am7                G
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright

They say, "I don't know"
C           C/B
And what once was ours is no one's now
Fsus4              G
I see you everywhere, the only thing we share

Is this small town
C               C/B
You said it was a great love, one for the ages
Fsus4                G
But if the story’s over, why am I still writing pages?


Chorus:
C             C/B        Am7
’Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
       G
Flashbacks waking me up
C           C/B
I get drunk, but it's not enough
       Fsus4          G
’Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
C          C/B      Am7
I look through the windows of this love
         G
Even though we boarded them up
C           C/B
Chandelier's still flickering here
     Fsus4        G       C   G
'Cause I can’t pretend it's okay when it's not
              F  G
It's death by a thousand cuts


Verse 2:
C                G
My heart, my hips, my body, my love
                    Fsus4
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
Our songs, our films, united we stand
                  Fsus4
Our country, guess it was a lawless land
                    G
Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand
                    C
Paper cut stings from our paper-thin plans
                 G
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
                     Fsus4
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up
                  G
Gave you so much, but it wasn't enough
                      C C/B Am7 G
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts


Chorus:
C          C/B
I get drunk, but it's not enough
 Am7         G
'Cause you're not my baby
C           C/B     Fsus4
I look through the windows of this love
      G
Even though we boarded them up
C           C/B
Chandelier's still flickering here
     Fsus4       G       C
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
     G
No, it's not
             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   Fsus4
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
