Chorus:
E                  E                  C#m
Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
            B
Flashbacks waking me up
A                     E  
I get drunk, but it's not enough
           F#m                      Bsus4   B
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby

E                   E              C#m
I look through the windows of this love
                B
Even though we boarded them up
A                  C#m
Chandelier still flickering here
         F#m           Bsus4  B             E
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
 E                G#m     A  B
It's death by a thousand cuts

E                      E                     G#m A
I dress to kill my time, I take the long way home
                                   B
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright,
they say, "I don't know"
E                     E             G#m A
And what once was ours, is no one's now
                                 B
I see you everywhere, the only thing we
share is this small town
E                            E                G#m A
You said it was a great love, one for the ages
                                    B
But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?

Chorus

My heart, my hips, my body, my love
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch
Gave up on me like I was a bad drug
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club
Our songs, our films, united we stand
Our country, guess it was a lawless land
Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand
Paper cut stings from our paper-thin plans
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up
Gave you so much, but it wasn't enough
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts

Chorus:
I get drunk, but it's not enough
'Cause you're not my baby
I look through the windows of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier's still flickering here
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
No, it's not
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

I take the long way home
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright
They say, "I don't know"
