These are Death Wish chords by Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.
[Chorus]
Dm
Did you ever love a woman
C
with a death wish?
Dm
Something in her eyes like
F
flipping off a light switch
Dm
Everybody dies but you gotta
C G Fmaj7
find a reason to carry on
Am
Oh, and did you ever catch
C
her climbing on the rooftop?
Dm
Higher than a kite, dead of
F
winter in a tank top
Dm
I don't wanna fight with you,
C
baby, but I won't leave
G Fmaj7
you alone
[Verse]
Dm
The night was young once,
C
we were the wild ones
Dm
Before we had to pay attention
F
to the violence
Dm
Anything could happen but
C Dm F
nothing ever really did
Dm C
I wanted action, she wanted answers
Dm
Sunrise with the dealers
F
and the dancers
DM
It takes a whole lot of
C Dm F
medicine to feel like a little kid
[Chorus]
Dm
Did you ever love a woman
C
with a death wish?
Dm
Something in her eyes like
F
flipping off a light switch
Dm
Everybody dies but you gotta
C G Fmaj7
find a reason to carry on

[Verse]
Am
Who's gonna save you?
C
Who's left to pray to?
Dm
What's the difference in
Fmaj7
a breakdown and a breakthrough?
Am
I saw her in the moonlight
C Dm Fmaj7
digging up the garden bed
Am C
I wanna hold her until it's over
Dm
Let her sleep through the
Fmaj7
morning on my shoulder
Am
But there's nothin' I could
C
say to her that I ain't
G Fmaj7
already said

[Break]
C F
When your words mean nothing
When the world turns to monochrome
C F
And you know she's not bluffing
'Cause you feel it in
G Am C
your booo-ones
Dm F
You feel it in
Am C Dm Fmaj7
your boooooooones
