Intro: G G G C G G G D Em Em C G
Verse:
G D Em
White lips, pale face, breathing in the snowflakes
C G
Burnt lungs, sour taste
G D Em
Light's gone, day's end struggling to pay rent
C G
Long nights, strange men
Pre-Chorus:
Em
And they say
C
She's in the Class A Team
G
Stuck in her daydream
D
Been this way since eighteen
Em
But lately her face seems
C
Slowly sinking, wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries and they scream
D
The worst things in life come free to us
Chorus:
Em C G
'Cause we're just under the upper hand
G Em
And go mad for a couple grams
C G
And she don't want to go outside tonight
Em C G
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
G Em
Or sells love to another man
C G
It's too cold outside
Em C G
For angels to fly
G Em C G
Angels to fly
[Repeat Verse-Chorus x2]
