Chorus 1:
D                 A                   Bm
Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
           D
Flashbacks waking me up
G                       Bm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
           Em                      Asus4  A
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
 

D                    A               Bm
  I look through the windows of this love
               D
Even though we boarded them up
G                  Bm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Em           Asus4 A             D
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
A                   Gbm      G    A
    It's death by a thousand cuts
 
Verse 1:
D                        A                     Gbm  G
  I dress to kill my time, I take the long way home
                                  A
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright, they say, "I don't know"
D                       A             Gbm  G
  And what once was ours, is no one's now
                               A
I see you everywhere, the only thing we share is this small town
D                             A                 Gbm  G
  You said it was a great love, one for the ages
                                  A
But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?
 
Chorus 2:
       D                 A                   Bm
'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
           D
Flashbacks waking me up
G                       Bm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
           Em                      Asus4  A
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
 

D                    A               Bm
  I look through the windows of this love
               D
Even though we boarded them up
G                  Bm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Em           Asus4 A             D
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
A                   Gbm      G    A
    It's death by a thousand cuts
 
Verse 2:
D                                A   
  My heart, my hips, my body, my love
                             Gbm        G
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch
                               A
Gave up on me like I was a bad drug
                                         D
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club
 

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

                                A   
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
                            Gbm         G
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up
                                 A
Gave you too much but it wasn't enough
                                         D     A    Bm A
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts
 
Chorus 3:
G                       Bm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
Em              Asus4  A
   'Cause you're not my baby
D                    A               Bm
  I look through the windows of this love
               D
Even though we boarded them up
G                  Bm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Em           Asus4 A             D
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not, no it's not
A                   Gbm      G    A
    It's death by a thousand cuts   -you didn't touch-
 
Post-Chorus:
                                        D
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch
            A                               Gbm      G
My body, my love, my trust -it's death by a thousand cuts-
               A
But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
 
Outro:
D  A    Bm           D
           I take the long way home
G           Bm                     Em
  I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright
           Asus4  A         
They say, "I      don't know"
