[C]I washed my hands of us at the [F]club
[C]You made a mess of me[F]
[C]I pictured you with other girls [F]in love
[C]Then threw up on the street[F]
[C]Like waiting for a bus [F]that never shows
[C]You just start walkin' [F]on
[C]They say that if it's right,[F] you know
[C]Each bar plays our song
[F]Nothing has ever felt so wrong
[C]Oh my, love is a lie
[F]Shit my friends say to get me by
[C]It hits different
[G]It hits different this time
[C]Catastrophic blues
[F]Movin' on was always easy for [Am]me to do
[C]It hits different
[G]It hits different 'cause it's you
[G] [Am] [G] [F] [G] [Am]
[F]Hang your head low [G]in the glow of the vending [Em]machine
I’m not buying [Am]
You [F]say that we’ll just [G]screw it up in these trying [Em]times
We’re not trying [Am]
So cut the [F]headlights, summer’s [G]a knife
I’m always waiting [Em]for you just to cut [Am]to the bone
Devils roll the [F]dice (dice), angels roll their eyes (eyes)
And if I [G]bleed, you’ll be the last to know
Oh it’s [C]new, the shape of your body
It’s [Em]blue, the feeling I’ve got
And it’s [Am]ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a [F]cruel summer
It’s [C]cool, that’s what I tell ’em
No [Em]rules, unbreakable heaven
But [Am]ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a [F]cruel summer, [C]with you
[C] I’m drunk in the back of the car
And I [Em]cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
[Am] Said I’m fine, but it wasn’t true
I don’t [F]wanna keep secrets just to keep you
And [C]I snuck in through the garden gate
Every [Em]night that summer just to seal my fate (oh)
[Am] And I screamed for whatever it’s worth
“I [F]love you,” ain’t that the worst thing you ever heard?
He looks up, grinning like a devil but
[C]I find the artifacts, cried over a hat
[F]Cursed the space that I needed
[C]I trace the evidence, make it make some sense
[F]Why the wound is still bleedin'
[C]You were the one that I loved
Don't need another [F]metaphor, it's simple enough
[C]A wrinkle in time like the [F]crease by your eyes
[C]This is why they shouldn't kill off the [F]main guy
[C]Dreams of your hair and your stare and [F]sense of belief
[C]In the good in the world, you once [F]believed in me
[C]And I felt you and I [F]held you for a while
[C]Bet I could still melt your [F]world
[C]Argumentative, antithetical [F]dream girl
[C]I heard your key turn in the door down the hallway
[F]Is that your key in the door?
[C]Is it okay? [F]Is it you?
[C]Or have they come to take me [F]away?
[C]To take me [F]away
It’s [C]new, the shape of your body
It’s [Em]blue, the feeling I’ve got
And it’s [Am]ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a [F]cruel summer
It’s [C]cool, that’s what I tell ’em
No [Em]rules, unbreakable heaven
But [Am]ooh-ooh ooh whoa-oh
It’s a [F]cruel summer, [C]with you
[C]Oh my, love is a lie
[F]Shit my friends say to get me by
[C]It hits different (it hits different)
[G]It hits different this time
[C]Catastrophic blues
[F]Movin' on was always easy for [Am]me to do
[C]It hits different (it hits different)
[G]It hits different 'cause it's you
[C]Oh, my, love is a lie
[F]Shit my friends say to get me by
[G]'Cause it's you
[C]Catastrophic blues
[F]Movin' on was always easy for [Am]me to do
[C]It hits different (yeah)
[G]Hits different 'cause it's you
[C] I’m drunk in the back of the car
And I [Em]cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh)
[Am] Said I’m fine, but it wasn’t true
I don’t [F]wanna keep secrets just to keep you
And [C]I snuck in through the garden gate
Every [Em]night that summer just to seal my fate (oh)
[Am] And I screamed for whatever it’s worth
“I [F]love you,” ain’t that the worst thing you ever [C]heard?
It’s a [F]cruel summer, [C] cause it
[G]Hits different 'cause it's you
