Cruel Summer

Chords & Lyrics, etc. · v1

Intro: G
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

C                                        D                                    Bm                                 Em
Fever dream high in the quiet of the night    You know that I caught it (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)
Bad, bad boy, shiny toy with a price    You know that I bought it (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)

 

Killing me slow, out the window    I'm always waiting for you to be waiting below
Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes    What doesn't kill me makes me want you more

 

              G                                                  Bm                                          Em                                                          C
And it's new, the shape of your body    It's blue, the feeling I've got    And it's ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh    It's a cruel summer
G                                                     Bm                                              Em                                                       C                            G
It's cool, that's what I tell 'em    No rules in breakable heaven    But ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh    It's a cruel summer, with you

 

Hang your head low in the glow of the vending machine, I'm not dying (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)
We say that we'll just screw it up in these trying times, We're not trying (oh yeah, you're right, I want it)

So cut the headlights, summer's a knife, I'm always waiting for you just to cut to the bone
Devils roll the dice (dice), angels roll their eyes (eyes), And if I bleed, you'll be the last to know

 

Chorus

 

  G                                                               Bm
I'm drunk in the back of the car    And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
Em                                                              C
Said "I'm fine", but it wasn't true    I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you

G                                                                      Bm
And I snuck in through the garden gate    Every night that summer just to seal my fate (oh)
Em                                                                      C
And I scream "For whatever it's worth    I love you, ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?"

He looks up, grinning like a devil

 

Chorus

  G                                                               Bm
I'm drunk in the back of the car    And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
Em                                                              C
Said "I'm fine", but it wasn't true    I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you

G                                                                      Bm
And I snuck in through the garden gate    Every night that summer just to seal my fate (oh)
Em                                                                      C
And I scream "For whatever it's worth    I love you, ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?"

 

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
