Chords
# VERSE 1 -
G
White lips, pale face
Em
Breathing in snowflakes
Cmaj G Cmaj G
Burnt lungs, sour taste
Light's gone, day's end
Em
Struggling to pay rent
Cmaj G
Long nights, strange men
# CHORUS -
Am
And they say
Cmaj
She's in the Class A Team
G
Stuck in her daydream
D
Been this way since 18
Am
But lately her face seems
Cmaj
Slowly sinking, wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries
D
And they scream
Em
The worst things in life come free to us
Cmaj G
Cos we're just under the upper hand
Em
And go mad for a couple of grams
C G Em
And she don't want to go outside tonight
Cmaj G
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
Em
Or sells love to another man
Cmaj G D
It's too cold outside
Em Cmaj G
For angels to fly
Em Cmaj G
Angels to fly
# VERSE 2
G
Ripped gloves, raincoat
Em
Tried to swim and stay afloat
Cmaj G Cmaj G
Dry house, wet clothes
Loose change, bank notes
Em
Weary-eyed, dry throat
Cmaj G
Call girl, no phone
# REPEAT CHORUS
# BRIDGE -
Cmaj
An angel will die
Em
Covered in white
G
Closed eye
Am
And hoping for a better life
Cmaj
This time, we'll fade out tonight
Em Cmaj G
Straight down the line
Em Cmaj G
Straight down the line
# REPEAT CHORUS
To fly, fly
Or angels to die
# Capo on 2nd fret to make it sound like original recording (though it still sounds good without the capo.

perhaps Allieluvsu you should figure that out yourself instead of a rude comment demanding it.

This is good version, but the timing for each chord is kinda off from where I prefer.
