Straight For The Knife chords by Sia

Guitar chords with lyrics

Didn't see a tab for this so I made a really basic one, please make suggestions as needed. I'm not tone
deaf but I'm not pitch perfect either.

Capo: none
Tuning: standard

D             Am                  G
Put on my best dress, I wanted to impress
I put a little make-up on
D                 Am                    G
Put a bow in my hair, wore pretty underwear
Hoping you might take it off
D               Am
Don't know your etiquette but
      G
I'm strapped to my chair, and it ain't 'cos you're pretty
D                 Am
You were charming, until
                       G
You saw your chance to kill, your chance to make history

[Chorus]
Em                        D             G
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Em                         D                           G
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight,
Bm
You wonder why
Caad
I'm scared of fire
Em                 D          Caad
You wonder why you make girls cry

D              Am                  G
My mascara a mess, harsh words for your princess
Boy, you and your promises
D                   Am                 G
If your goal was to love, you scored an epic miss
Now you'll just have memories

[Chorus]
Em                        D             G
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Em                         D                           G
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight,
Bm
You wonder why
Caad
I'm scared of fire
Em                 D          Caad
You wonder why you make girls cry

Em       Bm           G
Boy, you draw me back in
Em       Bm           G
I'm hungry for your bad loving
Em       Bm                Caad
But will someone find me swinging from the rafters
Em    Bm                   C
From hanging on your every word

[Chorus]
Em                        D             G
You went straight for the knife, and I prepared to die
Your blade it shines
Em                         D                           G
Looked me straight in the eye, you turned the gas on high
Held the flame alight,
Bm
You wonder why
Caad
I'm scared of fire
Em                 D        Caad
