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

It’s [Bm]blue, the feeling I’ve got
And it’s [Em]ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a [C]cruel summer

No [Bm]rules in breakable heaven
But [Em]ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a [C]cruel summer, with [G]you
