[Verse I]
G G/F# Em
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes
C9 G A7sus4
Burnt lungs, sour taste
G G/F# Em
Light’s gone, day’s end, struggling to pay rent
C9 G
Long nights, strange men
[Chorus]
Am7 C/G
And they say she’s in the Class A Team,
G
stuck in her daydream
D/F# Am7
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems,
C/G
slowly sinking, wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries, and they scream
D/F#
the worst things in life come free to us
Em C9
Cos we're just under the upperhand,
G
and go mad for a couple of grams
Em C9 G
And she don’t want to go outside, tonight
Em C9
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland,
G
or sells love to another man
Em C9 G D/F# Em
It’s too cold outside for angels to fly,
C9 G Em C9 G G/F#
for angels to fly
[Verse II]
G G/F# Em
Ripped gloves, raincoat, tried to swim and stay afloat
C9 G A7sus4
Dry house, wet clothes
G G/F# Em
Loose change, bank notes, weary-eyed, dry throat
C9 G
Call girl, no phone
[Chorus]
Am7 C/G
And they say she’s in the Class A Team,
G
stuck in her daydream
D/F# Am7
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems,
C/G
slowly sinking, wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries, and they scream
D/F#
the worst things in life come free to us
Em C9
Cos we're just under the upperhand,
G
and go mad for a couple of grams
Em C9 G
And she don’t want to go outside, tonight
Em C9
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland,
G
or sells love to another man
Em C9 G D/F# Am7
It’s too cold outside for angels to fly,
Am7 C/G Em
An angel will die, covered in white
Em G
Closed eye and hoping for a better life
Am7 C/G
This time, we’ll fade out tonight,
(Em C/G G D/F#
straight down the line
[Chorus]
Am7 C/G
And they say she’s in the Class A Team,
G
stuck in her daydream
D/F# Am7
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems,
C/G
slowly sinking, wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries, and they scream
D/F#
the worst things in life come free to us
Em C9
Cos we're all under the upperhand,
G
and go mad for a couple of grams
Em C9 G
And we don’t want to go outside, tonight
Em C9
And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland,
G
or sell love to another man
Em C9 G D/F# Em
It’s too cold outside for angels to fly,
C9 G Em C9 G G/F# Em C9 G
for angels to fly to fly, fly
G/F# Em C9 G G/F# G
for angels to fly, to fly, to fly. Angels die.
