Straight For The Knife Chords & Lyrics - Sia

Capo: none
Tuning: standard

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

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

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

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

[Em]Boy, you [Bm]draw me back [G]in
[Em]I'm hungr[Bm]y for your ba[G]d loving
[Em]But will [Bm]someone find me sw[Gm]inging from the rafters
[Em]From h[Bm]anging on your every [G]word

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