NO CAPO
[Intro]
A E F#m D A
[Verse]
A
White lips, pale face
E
Breathing in snowflakes
F#m D A
Burnt lungs, sour taste
A
Light's gone, day's end
E
Struggling to pay rent
D A
Long nights, strange men
[Pre-chorus]
Bm7
And they say
D
She's in the Class A Team
A
Stuck in her daydream
E
Been this way since eighteen
Bm7
But lately her face seems
D
Slowly sinking, wasting
A
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
E
The worst things in life come free to us
[Chorus]
F#m D
'Cause we're just under the upper hand
A
And go mad for a couple grams
F#m D A
And she don't want to go outside tonight
F#m D
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
A
Or sells love to another man
F#m D A
It's too cold outside
E F#m D A
For angels to fly
F#m D
For angels to fly
[Verse]
A
Ripped gloves, raincoat
E
Tried to swim and stay afloat
F#m D A
Dry house, wet clothes
A
Loose change, bank notes
E
Weary-eyed, dry throat
F#m D A
Call girl, no phone
[Pre-chorus]
Bm7
And they say
D
She's in the Class A Team
A
Stuck in her daydream
E
Been this way since eighteen

But lately her face seems

Slowly sinking, wasting
A
Crumbling like pastries
And they scream
E
The worst things in life come free to us
[Chorus]
F#m D
'Cause we're just under the upper hand
A
And go mad for a couple grams
F#m D A
And she don't want to go outside tonight
F#m D
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
A
Or sells love to another man
F#m D A
It's too cold outside
E F#m D A
For angels to fly
F#m D
For angels to fly
[Bridge]
Bm7 Dmaj9
An angel will die
F#m7
Covered in white
Closed eye
A
And hoping for a better life
Bm7 Dmaj9
This time, we'll fade out tonight
Straight down the line
F#m7 Dmaj9 Amaj7 F#m7 Dmaj9 Amaj7

The "E"s in the verses could be replaced by an A/G# chord, that is an A chord with a G# in the bass [speaking more as a guitarist than a uke player...]
Some of the chords are misaligned, but that could be partly due to the way ukulele-tabs.com processes what we enter...
