A#        Gm
You went cold
A#       D#
You got caught
A#     Gm        A#       F
You exceeded my darkest thoughts
  A#        Gm           A#     D#
A poisoned chalice found in my side
A#      Gm   A#        F
I'm so numb from your lies

Chorus:
      D#
While you were busy breaking hearts
A#           F
I was busy breaking
D#                        A#             F
I was giving all my love, you were busy taking
D#
Summer haze of summer wine
  A#       D7  Gm
Reminded me of better times
D#                       F
But I let you in my heart
                   A#     Gm A# D#
So, now it's busy breaking
               A#      Gm       A#  F
Now it's busy breaking,   oh-oh-oh

Went so far down this road
I felt depression deep in my soul
Drug-fuelled fights, ride your lows and highs
We played it all out 'til we died

Chorus:
While you were busy breakin' hearts
I was busy breakin'
I was giving all my love
You were busy takin'
Summer haze of summer wine
Reminded me of better times
But I let you in my heart
So, now it's busy breakin' (Ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

While you were busy breakin' hearts
I was busy breakin'
I was giving all my love
You were busy takin'
Summer haze of summer wine
Reminded me of better times
But I let you in my heart
But I let you in my heart
Why'd I let you in my heart?
'Cause now it's busy breakin'
