G G
White lips, pale face,
G G Em Em
Breathing in snowflakes,
C C G G
Burnt lungs, sour taste.
G G
Light's gone, day's end,
G G Em Em
Struggling to pay rent,
C C G G
Long nights, strange men.

Am7 Am7 C C
And they say she's in the Class A A Team,
G G
Stuck in her daydream,
D D Am7 Am7
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems
C C
Slowly sinking, wasting,
G G
Crumbling like pastries,

And they scream,
D D
The worst things in life come free to us,
Em Em C C G G
Cos we're just under the upperhand,
G G
And go mad for a couple of grams,
Em Em C C G G
And she don't want to go outside tonight,
Em Em C C
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland,
G G
Or sells love to another man,
Em Em C C
It's too cold outside,
G G Em Em
For angels to fly,
D D Em Em
Angels to fly,

G G
Ripped gloves, raincoat,
Em Em
Tried to swim and stay afloat,
C C G G
Dry house, wet clothes.

Loose change, bank notes,
Em Em
Weary-eyed, dry throat,
C C G G
Call girl, no phone.


Am7 Am7 C C
And they say she's in the Class A A Team,
G G
Stuck in her daydream,
D D Am7 Am7
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems
C C
Slowly sinking, wasting,
G G
Crumbling like pastries,

And they scream,

The worst things in life come free to us,
Em Em C C
Cos we're just under the upperhand,
G G
And go mad for a couple of grams,
Em Em C C G G
And she don't want to go outside tonight,
Em Em C C
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland,
G G
Or sells love to another man,
Em Em C C
It's too cold outside,
G G Em Em
For angels to fly,
D D Em Em
Angels to fly,
Am7 Am7 C C
An angel will die.

G G D D
Covered in white,
Em Em
Closed eye,
C C G G
And hoping for a better life,
Am Am C C
This time, we'll fade out tonight,
G G Em Em
Straight down the line.

Am7 Am7 C C
And they say she's in the Class A A Team,

Stuck in her daydream,

Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems

To fly, fly,

In a significantly easier key than A major but, if someone wants to play with the song they will be a little disappointed.
