[Intro]
G5 F#5 Freeze!
[Verse 1]
Em It's time to take you home B C B Em It feels so early but I promised I would bring you to your door Em B Now our lips are numb as we walk sharing warm alcohol C B Em That kiss tastes like summer Am B I hope you like the stars I stole for you Em One hundred million twinkle lights in neon blue Am I'll be the brightest someday B I'll be the brightest someday C I'll be the brightest you'll see
[Chorus]
Em B7 Don't rain on my parade Cmaj7 It's gonna glow in the dark B I like it better when you can't keep warm Em Am It's time to ruin a perfect thing C A perfect thing B7 The boy on the blue moon dreams of sun Em B C B G5 F#5 G5 F#5 Em (wildly screeching solo)
[Verse 2]
Em B Now as the rain falls like shattered pieces of glass from the sky C B We bleed like water colors and drunken pastels down the stairways Em B And I ask myself, why do I still pray C When will it end Em And who fucking cares Am Am I swear to God I did what I could Em I practically begged you B Am I pretended everything was fine Am Em A soul sacrifice, an American nightmare B G5 F#5 I'd rather be dead
[Chorus]
Em B7 Don't rain on my parade Cmaj7 It's gonna glow in the dark B7 I like it better when you can't keep warm Em B7 Don't ruin a perfect thing Am A perfect thing F Em The boy on the blue moon hears a nightmare in his head
(rapidly decaying nonsense)
[Verse 3]
Em I'll bet you money as you're running to the bathroom B You barely started drinking but your beauty never stopped you Em You died in California by the sulfur and the sea B7 I guess I never should have loved you
But I do forever cause you loved me
Em And I break my glasses as I fall in the street B B7 If you were gonna leave this world how could it be without me Am B Now it's all over my tongue and still it has no taste Em Cause without you there is no me
[Bridge]
Em Am
C B Em There's no me at all
[Bridge pt.2]
C Sometimes love B (Sometimes love) C B Love dies like C B (Love dies like) C B Dies like a C B (Dies like a) C B Em Love dies like a dog Am C B Aaaah, whoooaaah G5 F#5 (Why don't we just let this one take care of itself?)
[Chorus]
Em B7 Don't rain on my parade Cmaj7 It's gonna glow in the dark B7 I like it better when you can't keep warm Em B7 Don't ruin a perfect thing Am A perfect thing B The boy on the blue moon dreams...
[Outro]
Em B7 C B7 Don't rain on my parade, oh whoah, oh no Em B7 I'm losing a perfect thing C A perfect thing G5 F#5 E5 A perfect thing Am Em C B G5 F#5 (random detuning)
