[Post-Chorus]

[Verse 1]
E I dress to kill my time,E/D# I take the long way home
A I ask the traffic lights if it'll Bbe alright
They say, "I don't know"
E And what once was oursE/D# is no one's now
A I see you everywhere, the only Bthing we share
Is this small town
E You said it was a great love,E/D# one for the ages
A But if the story's over, why am I Bstill writing pages?
[Chorus]
'Cause Esaying goodbye is death E/D#by a thousand C#mcuts
Flashbacks [Badd11]waking me up
A I get drunk, but it's C#mnot enough
'Cause the F#mmorning comes and you're Bsus4not my baBby
E I look through the E/D#windows of this C#mlove
Even though we [Badd11]boarded them up
A Chandelier's still C#mflickering here
'Cause I F#mcan't pretend Bsus4it's okayB when it's Enot
[Post-Chorus]
E/D# It's death by a thousand Acuts B
[Verse 2]
E My heart, my hips, my body, my E/D#love
Tryna find a part of me that you didn't Atouch
Gave up on me like I was a bad Bdrug
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted Eclub
Our songs, our films, united we E/D#stand
Our country, guess it was a lawless Aland
Quiet my fears with the touch of your Bhand
Paper cut stings from our paperthin Eplans
My time, my wine, my spirit, my E/D#trust
Tryna find a part of me you didn't take Aup
Gave you so much, but it wasn't eBnough
But I'll be alright, it's just a thousandE cuts E/D#
[Interlude]
C#m [Badd11] A I get drunk, but it's C#mnot enough
F#m 'Cause you're Bsus4not my baBby
E I look through the E/D#windows of this C#mlove
Even though we [Badd11]boarded them up
A Chandelier's still C#mflickering here
'Cause I F#mcan't pretend Bsus4it's okayB when it's Enot
No, it's not
E/D# It's death by a thousand Acuts
B Tryna find a part of me that you didn't Etouch
My body, my E/D#love, my trust A
But it wasn't eBnough, it wasn't enough, no, no
[Outro]
E E/D# C#m I take the [Badd11]long way home
A I ask the C#mtraffic lights if it'll F#mbe alright
They say, Bsus4"I Bdon't know"
