Chorus: E E/D# C#m Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts B Flashbacks waking me up A E/G# I get drunk, but it's not enough F#m Bsus4 B 'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby E E/D# C#m I look through the windows of this love B Even though we boarded them up A C#m Chandelier still flickering here F#m Bsus4 B E 'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not E/D# G#m A B It's death by a thousand cuts E E/D# G#m A I dress to kill my time, I take the long way home B I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright, they say, "I don't know" E E/D# G#m A And what once was ours, is no one's now B I see you everywhere, the only thing we share is this small town E E/D# G#m A You said it was a great love, one for the ages B But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages? Chorus My heart, my hips, my body, my love Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch Gave up on me like I was a bad drug Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club Our songs, our films, united we stand Our country, guess it was a lawless land Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand Paper cut stings from our paper-thin plans My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up Gave you so much, but it wasn't enough But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts Chorus: I get drunk, but it's not enough 'Cause you're not my baby I look through the windows of this love Even though we boarded them up Chandelier's still flickering here 'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not No, it's not It's death by a thousand cuts (You didn't touch) Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch My body, my love, my trust (It's death by a thousand cuts) But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no I take the long way home I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright They say, "I don't know" You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C#m  D#  E  F#m  G#  G#m  B  Bsus4  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
