[Gm] [E]
[Em] [C] [G]
White lips, pale face, breathing [D] in [Em] snowflakes
Burnt [C] lungs, [G] sour taste, lights gone, days end
Struggling [D] to [E] pay rent, long [C] nights, [G] strange man
And [Am] they say she's in class [C] 18, stuck in her [G] daydream
Been this way [D] since 18, but lately her [Am] face seems
Slowly sinking, [C] wasting, crumbling [G] like pastries
And they scream, [D] the worst things in life come free to us
[Em] Cause we're just [C] under the upper hand, [G]
and go mad for a couple grams
[Em] And she don't [C] wanna go [G] outside tonight
[Em] And in her part she [C] flies to the motherland, [G]
or sells love to another man
[Em] It's too [C] cold [G] outside [D] for angels [Em] to fly, [C] [G]
angels [Em] to [C] fly
[G]
Ripped gloves, raincoat, try to [F#m] swim and stay [E] afloat
Dry [C] house, [G] wet clothes, loose change, bank notes
Weary [F#m] eyed and dry [Em] throat, call [C] girl, [G] no phone
[Am] And they say she's in the class [C]
18, stuck in her [G] daydream
Been this [D] way since 18, but lately [Am] her face seems
Slowly [C] sinking, wasting, crumbling [G] like pastries
And they scream, [D] the worst things in life come free to us
[Em] Cause we're just [C] under the upper hand, [G]
and go mad for a couple grams
[Em] And she don't [C] wanna go [G] outside tonight
[Em] And in her part she [C] flies to the motherland, [G] or sells love to another man
[Em] It's too [C] cold [G] outside [D] for angels [Am] to fly
An angel [C] will die, covered in [E] white
Closed eyes [G] and hoping for a better life
[Am] But this [C] time, we'll fade out tonight
Straight down the [Em] line
[C] [G]
[Em] [C] [G]
[Am] And they say she's in [C] the class 18, stuck in her [G] daydream
Been this way [D] since 18, but lately [A] her face seems
Slowly [C] sinking, wasting, crumbling [G] like pastries
And they scream, [D] the worst things in life come free to us
[Em] And we're all [C] under the upper hand, [G]
and go mad for a couple [Em] grams
And we don't [C] wanna go [G] outside tonight
[Em] And in her part we [C] fly to the [G] motherland, or sell love to another man
[Em] It's too [C] cold [G] outside [D] for angels [Em] to fly
[C] [G]
[Em] Angels to fly [C] [G] To [Em] fly
[C] [G]
Angels [Em] to fly
[C] [G]
[D] Angels [G] to fly
[Em] And in her part she [C] flies to the [G] motherland, or sells love to another [Em] man
It's too [C] cold [G] outside [D] for angels [Em] to fly
[C] [G]
Angels [Em] to fly
