Chorus 1
[C] [G] [Am]
Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
[G]
Flashbacks waking me up
[F] [Am]
I get drunk, but it's not enough
[Dm] [G]
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
[C] [G] [Am]
I look through the windows of this love
[G]
Even though we boarded them up
[F] [Am]
Chandelier still flickering here
[Dm] [G] [C]
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
[G] [F] [G]
It's death by a thousand cuts
Verse 1
[C] [G] [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] [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] [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?

Verse 2
[C] [G]
My heart, my hips, my body, my love
[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]
Our songs, our films, united, we stand
[F]
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
[F]
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up
[G]
Gave you too much, but it wasn't enough
[C] [G] [Am] [G]
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts

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
