Tori Kelly - Dead (Standard, No Capo)
Verse
G#m
Try to give me a beautiful bouquet,
C#m7              BF#
                  -
Is that what you see?
G#m                                           C#m7
Cuz what I'm looking at is nothing but decay,
                        BF#
                        -
Guess you don't know me.
Pre-Chorus
G#m
Ooh I won't let you turn me into dust,
G#m7
I can hear the whispers, so which one do I trust?
C#m7
Won't you look around?
       B             F#                 G#m
Their skeletons are waiting to be found.
Chorus
E          F#7             G#m    C#
I know they try to pull me under,
E         F#7              G#mC#
                           -
They try to get inside my head,
       E              F#7             G#m
I wanna live my life, feel the light,
                  C#           E C#m G#m C# E G#7
But how can I if everything is dead, dead, dead.
Verse
G#m
You fill me with lies,
                      C#m7
Whisper fake paradise,
                    BF#
                    - (quick stop)
Is that what you believe?
G#m
Drowning in fear,
                                  C#m7
Those strings are killing you my dear,
             B     F#
I'd rather be free.
Pre-Chorus
G#m
Ooh I won't let you turn me into dust,
G#m7
I can hear the whispers, so which one do I trust?
C#m7
Won't you look around?
       B             F#                 G#m
Their skeletons are waiting to be found.
Chorus
E          F#7             G#m    C#
I know they try to pull me under,
E         F#7              G#mC#
                           -
They try to get inside my head,
       E              F#7             G#m
I wanna live my life, feel the light,
                  C#           E C#m G#m C# E G#dim7
But how can I if everything is dead, dead, dead.
Bridge
C#m7         G#dim7
Close to the edge,
            G#m         F#7       E
I'm sick of running away from the dark,
C#m7    G#dim7           G#m     Bsus2E     G#dim7
                                 -      
Turn on the lights and I'll expose you for what you are.

Interlude (, , , , )
Chorus
E          F#7             G#m    C#

E         F#7              G#mC#
                           -

(Repeat Chorus til fade and end on )
I know it isn't exactly the same, but it's a start! ^_^
