[Verse 1]

A# A#
White lips, pale face
F F Gm Gm
Breathing in snowflakes
D# D# A# A#
Burnt lungs, sour taste
A# A#
Light's gone, day's end
F F Gm Gm
Struggling to pay rent
D# D# A# A#
Long nights, strange men


[Pre-Chorus]

Cm Cm
And they say
D# D#
She's in the Class A A Team
A# A#
Stuck in her daydream
F F
Been this way since 18
Cm Cm
But lately her face seems
D# D#
Slowly sinking, wasting
A# A#
Crumbling like pastries

And they scream
F F
The worst things in life come free to us


[Chorus 1]

Gm Gm D# D#
Cos we're just under the upperhand
A# A#
And go mad for a couple of grams
Gm Gm D# D# A# A#
And she don't want to go outside tonight
Gm Gm D# D#
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
A# A# F F
Or sells love to another man
Gm Gm D# D# A# A#
It's too cold outside
Gm Gm D# D# A# A#
For angels to fly
Gm Gm D# D# A# A#
Angels to fly

[Verse 2]


A# A#
Ripped gloves, raincoat
F F Gm Gm
Tried to swim and stay afloat
D# D# A# A#
Dry house, wet clothes
A# A#
Loose change, bank notes
F F Gm Gm
Weary-eyed, dry throat
D# D# A# A#
Call girl, no phone


[Pre-Chorus]

Cm Cm
And they say
D# D#
She's in the Class A A Team
A# A#
Stuck in her daydream
F F
Been this way since 18
Cm Cm
But lately her face seems
D# D#
Slowly sinking, wasting
A# A#
Crumbling like pastries

And they scream

The worst things in life come free to us


[Chorus 1]

Gm Gm D# D#
Cos we're just under the upperhand
A# A#
And go mad for a couple of grams
Gm Gm D# D# A# A#
And she don't want to go outside tonight
Gm Gm D# D#
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
A# A# F F
Or sells love to another man
Gm Gm D# D# A# A#
It's too cold outside
Cm Cm
For angels to fly

[Bridge]

Cm Cm D# D#
An angel will die
Gm Gm
Covered in white

Closed eye
A# A#
And hoping for a better life
Cm Cm D# D#
This time, we'll fade out tonight
Gm Gm D# D# A# A#
Straight down the line


[Pre-Chorus]

Cm Cm
And they say
D# D#
She's in the Class A A Team
A# A#
Stuck in her daydream
F F
Been this way since 18

But lately her face seems

Slowly sinking, wasting

To fly, fly
