Papercuts Chords

Capo 5(Key: F)

[Verse 1]
C                        E
One more covered up tattoo,
                      Am
New year but same issues
 
New shoes,
           C                           G
Scraped my knees tryna re-tie the laces
 
    C                        E
Boy one was better than boy two,
                      Am
Just a little more to lose
 
The short fuse,
   C                            G
He blew it and I couldn't face it
 
 
[Pre-chorus]
Fm                      C
  And for every jab he took
          Dm                  
He left a million-dollar baby 
           G
that much weaker
 
 
[Chorus]
     F             C
It's not about one open scar
    G
One broken heart,
          Am       G       F
It's not about one drop of blood,
            C
It's all the little stuff
     G
I've bottled up
          Am       G         F
While I'm pushed under thе rug
 
         C                    G
How many times do I build it up
            Am        G
To watch it all fall down?
     F             C
It's not about one open scar,
     G
One crashing car
         Am       G       F
It's not about one broken heart
      Fm            C
But a thousand papercuts
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                           E
Child, I'm rubber and he's glue,
                      Am
New book, cannot get through
 
To chapter two,
          C                      G
I hurt my finger by turnin' the pages
 
     C                           E
It's wild, the things you can't undo,
                     Am
So many black and blues
 
I outgrew,
    C                           G
I'm timing in all the right places
 
 
[Pre-chorus]
Fm                    C
  And every jab he took
       Dm                    
Left a hundred-thousand cuts 
                G
he made from paper
 
 
[Chorus]
     F             C
It's not about one open scar
    G
One broken heart,
          Am       G       F
It's not about one drop of blood,
            C
It's all the little stuff
     G
I've bottled up
          Am       G         F
While I'm pushed under thе rug
 
         C                    G
How many times do I build it up
            Am        G
To watch it all fall down?
     F             C
It's not about one open scar,
     G
One crashing car
         Am       G       F
It's not about one broken heart
      Fm            C
But a thousand papercuts
 
 
[Bridge]
                    E
Paper hurts, paper does what paper should
      Am                 
Paper plate, paper skin, 
       C                G
broken hearts make papercuts
 
 
[Chorus]
     F             C
It's not about one open scar
    G
One broken heart,
          Am       G       F
It's not about one drop of blood,
            C
It's all the little stuff
     G
I've bottled up
          Am       G         F
While I'm pushed under thе rug
 
         C                    G
How many times do I build it up
            Am        G
To watch it all fall down?
     F             C
It's not about one open scar,
     G
One crashing car
         Am       G       F
It's not about one broken heart
      Fm            C
But a thousand papercuts
