Chorus 1:
F                 C                   Dm
Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
           F
Flashbacks waking me up
Bb                       Dm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
           Gm                      Csus4  C
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
 

F                    C               Dm
  I look through the windows of this love
               F
Even though we boarded them up
Bb                  Dm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Gm           Csus4 C             F
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
C                   Am      Bb    C
    It's death by a thousand cuts
 
Verse 1:
F                        C                     Am  Bb
  I dress to kill my time, I take the long way home
                                  C
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright, they say, "I don't know"
F                       C             Am  Bb
  And what once was ours, is no one's now
                               C
I see you everywhere, the only thing we share is this small town
F                             C                 Am  Bb
  You said it was a great love, one for the ages
                                  C
But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?
 
Chorus 2:
       F                 C                   Dm
'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
           F
Flashbacks waking me up
Bb                       Dm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
           Gm                      Csus4  C
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
 

F                    C               Dm
  I look through the windows of this love
               F
Even though we boarded them up
Bb                  Dm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Gm           Csus4 C             F
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
C                   Am      Bb    C
    It's death by a thousand cuts
 
Verse 2:
F                                C   
  My heart, my hips, my body, my love
                             Am        Bb
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch
                               C
Gave up on me like I was a bad drug
                                         F
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club
 

                                C   
Our songs, our films, united we stand
                            Am     Bb
Our country, guess it was a lawless land
                                    C
Quiet my fears at the touch of your hand
                                     F
Paper cut stings from our paper-thin plans
 

                                C   
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
                            Am         Bb
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up
                                 C
Gave you too much but it wasn't enough
                                         F     C    Dm C
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts
 
Chorus 3:
Bb                       Dm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
Gm              Csus4  C
   'Cause you're not my baby
F                    C               Dm
  I look through the windows of this love
               F
Even though we boarded them up
Bb                  Dm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Gm           Csus4 C             F
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not, no it's not
C                   Am      Bb    C
    It's death by a thousand cuts   -you didn't touch-
 
Post-Chorus:
                                        F
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch
            C                               Am      Bb
My body, my love, my trust -it's death by a thousand cuts-
               C
But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
 
Outro:
F  C    Dm           F
           I take the long way home
Bb           Dm                     Gm
  I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright
           Csus4  C         
They say, "I      don't know"
