Dead chords

Dead

• G#m

My first tab, wish me luck and hopefully I didn't completely butcher it. ^_^

I'm doing the chords based on the live version she performed.


Tori Kelly - Dead (Standard, No Capo)


Verse

G#m
Try to give me a beautiful bouquet,
C#m7                  B-F#
Is that what you see?
G#m                                           C#m7
Cuz what I'm looking at is nothing but decay,
                        B-F#
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#m-C#
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,
                    B-F# (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#m-C#
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        Bsus2-E      G#dim7
Turn on the lights and I'll expose you for what you are.

Interlude (G#m, G#m7, C#m7, E, F#)

Chorus

E          F#7             G#m    C#  
I know they try to pull me under,
E          F#7                 G#m-C#
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.

(Repeat Chorus til fade and end on G#m)

I know it isn't exactly the same, but it's a start! ^_^
