Verse 1: A Fever dream high in the quiet of the night E You know that I caught it (Oh yeah, you're right, I want it) A Bad, bad boy, shiny toy with a price E You know that I bought it (Oh yeah, you're right, I want it) Pre-Chorus: A Killing me slow, out the window E I'm always waiting for you to be waiting below A Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes E What doesn't kill me makes me want you more
Chorus: A And it's new, the shape of your body E It's blue, the feeling I've got D And it's ooh, whoa oh D It's a cruel summer A It's cool, that's what I tell 'em E No rules in breakable heaven D But ooh, whoa oh D It's a cruel summer A With you Verse 2: A E Hang your head low in the glow of the vending machine E I'm not dying (Oh yeah, you're right, I want it) A E We say that we'll just screw it up in these trying times E We're not trying (Oh yeah, you're right, I want it) Pre-Chorus 2: A So cut the headlights, summer's a knife E I'm always waiting for you just to cut to the bone A Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes E And if I bleed, you'll be the last to know Chorus: A And it's new, the shape of your body E It's blue, the feeling I've got D And it's ooh, whoa oh D It's a cruel summer A It's cool, that's what I tell 'em E No rules in breakable heaven D But ooh, whoa oh D It's a cruel summer A With you Bridge: A I'm drunk in the back of the car E And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (Oh) A Said, "I'm fine," but it wasn't true E I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you A And I snuck in through the garden gate E Every night that summer just to seal my fate (Oh) A And I scream, "For whatever it's worth E I love you, ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?" D He looks up, grinning like a devil Chorus: A And it's new, the shape of your body E It's blue, the feeling I've got D And it's ooh, whoa oh D It's a cruel summer A It's cool, that's what I tell 'em E No rules in breakable heaven D But ooh, whoa oh D It's a cruel summer A With you Outro: A I'm drunk in the back of the car E And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (Oh) A Said, "I'm fine," but it wasn't true E I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you A And I snuck in through the garden gate E Every night that summer just to seal my fate (Oh) A And I scream, "For whatever it's worth E I love you, ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?" A (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
