[Chorus 1]
CSaying goodbye is G/Bdeath by a thousand Amcuts
Flashbacks Cwaking me up
F I get drunk, but it's Amnot enough
'Cause the Dmmorning comes and you're Gsus4not my Gbaby
C I look through the G/Bwindows of this Amlove
Even though we Cboarded them up
F Chandelier still Amflickering here
'Cause I Dmcan't pretend Gsus4it's oGkay when it's Cnot
G/B It's death by a Emthousand Fcuts G
[Verse 1]
C I dress to kill my timeG/B, I take the long way Emhome F
I ask the traffic lights if it'll Gbe alright, they say, "I don't know"
C And what once was oursG/B, is no one's Emnow F
I see you everywhere, the only Gthing we share is this small town
C You said it was a great loveG/B, one for the agesEm F
But if the story's over, why am I Gstill writing pages?
[Chorus 2]
'Cause Csaying goodbye is G/Bdeath by a thousand Amcuts
Flashbacks Cwaking me up
F I get drunk, but it's Amnot enough
'Cause the Dmmorning comes and you're Gsus4not my Gbaby
C I look through the G/Bwindows of this Amlove
Even though we Cboarded them up
F Chandelier still Amflickering here
'Cause I Dmcan't pretend Gsus4it's oGkay when it's Cnot
G/B It's death by a Emthousand Fcuts G
[Verse 2]
C My heart, my hips, my body, my G/Blove
Tryna find a part of me that Emyou didn't Ftouch
Gave up on me like I was a bad Gdrug
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted Cclub
Our songs, our films, united we G/Bstand
Our country, guess it was a Emlawless Fland
Quiet my fears at the touch of your Ghand
Paper cut stings from our paper-thin Cplans
My time, my wine, my spirit, my G/Btrust
Tryna find a part of me you Emdidn't take Fup
Gave you too much but it wasn't eGnough
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousandC cuts G/B Am G
[Chorus 3]
F I get drunk, but it's Amnot enough
Dm 'Cause you're Gsus4not my Gbaby
C I look through the G/Bwindows of this Amlove
Even though we Cboarded them up
F Chandelier still Amflickering here
'Cause I Dmcan't pretend Gsus4it's oGkay when it's Cnot, no it's not
G/B It's death by a Emthousand Fcuts G (you didn't touch)
[Post-Chorus]
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't Ctouch
My body, my G/Blove, my trust (it's death by a Emthousand Fcuts)
But it wasn't eGnough, it wasn't enough, no, no
[Outro]
C G/B Am I take the Clong way home
F I ask the Amtraffic lights if it'll Dmbe alright
They say, "Gsus4I Gdon't
