Chorus 1:
B                 Gb                   Abm
Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
           B
Flashbacks waking me up
E                       Abm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
           Dbm                      Gbsus4  Gb
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
 

B                    Gb               Abm
  I look through the windows of this love
               B
Even though we boarded them up
E                  Abm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Dbm           Gbsus4 Gb             B
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
Gb                   Ebm      E    Gb
    It's death by a thousand cuts
 
Verse 1:
B                        Gb                     Ebm  E
  I dress to kill my time, I take the long way home
                                  Gb
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright, they say, "I don't know"
B                       Gb             Ebm  E
  And what once was ours, is no one's now
                               Gb
I see you everywhere, the only thing we share is this small town
B                             Gb                 Ebm  E
  You said it was a great love, one for the ages
                                  Gb
But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?
 
Chorus 2:
       B                 Gb                   Abm
'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
           B
Flashbacks waking me up
E                       Abm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
           Dbm                      Gbsus4  Gb
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
 

B                    Gb               Abm
  I look through the windows of this love
               B
Even though we boarded them up
E                  Abm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Dbm           Gbsus4 Gb             B
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
Gb                   Ebm      E    Gb
    It's death by a thousand cuts
 
Verse 2:
B                                Gb   
  My heart, my hips, my body, my love
                             Ebm        E
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch
                               Gb
Gave up on me like I was a bad drug
                                         B
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club
 

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

                                Gb   
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
                            Ebm         E
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up
                                 Gb
Gave you too much but it wasn't enough
                                         B     Gb    Abm Gb
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts
 
Chorus 3:
E                       Abm
  I get drunk, but it's not enough
Dbm              Gbsus4  Gb
   'Cause you're not my baby
B                    Gb               Abm
  I look through the windows of this love
               B
Even though we boarded them up
E                  Abm
  Chandelier still flickering here
         Dbm           Gbsus4 Gb             B
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not, no it's not
Gb                   Ebm      E    Gb
    It's death by a thousand cuts   -you didn't touch-
 
Post-Chorus:
                                        B
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch
            Gb                               Ebm      E
My body, my love, my trust -it's death by a thousand cuts-
               Gb
But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
 
Outro:
B  Gb    Abm           B
           I take the long way home
E           Abm                     Dbm
  I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright
           Gbsus4  Gb         
They say, "I      don't know"
