Tom: G (com forma de G)
Capotraste: 2ª casa
C G
Intro: Em
G D/F# Em
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes
C G
Burnt lungs, sour taste
G D/F# Em
Light’s gone, day’s end, struggling to pay rent
C G
Long nights, strange men
[Refrão]
Am7 C G
And they say she’s in the class a team, stuck in her daydream
D/F# Am7 C
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems, slowly sinking, wasting
G D/F#
Crumbling like pastries, and they scream the worst things in life come free to us
Em C G
Cos we're just under the upperhand, and go mad for a couple of grams
Em C G
And she don’t want to go outside tonight
Em C G D/F#
And in a pipe she flies to the motherland, or sells love to another man
[Próxima Parte]
Em C G D/F# Em
It’s too cold outside for angels to fly,
C G D/F# Em C G
for angels to fly
G D/F# Em
Ripped gloves, raincoat, tried to swim and stay afloat
C G
Dry house, wet clothes
G D/F# Em
Loose change, bank notes, weary-eyed, dry throat
C G
Call girl, no phone
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
Em C G D4/F# Em
It’s too cold outside for angels to fly,
Am7 C Em
an angel will die, covered in white
G D/F#
Closed eye and hoping for a better life
Am7 C
This time, we’ll fade out tonight, straight down the line
C G
( Em
D/F# ) (2x)
Am7 C G
And they say she’s in the class a team, stuck in her daydream
D4/F# Am7 C
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems, slowly sinking, wasting
G D4/F#
Crumbling like pastries, and they scream the worst things in life come free to us
Em C G
And we're all under the upper hand, and go mad for a couple of grams
Em C G
And we don’t want to go outside tonight
Em7 C G D/F#
And in a pipe we fly to the motherland, or sell love to another man
Em C G D/F# Em
It’s too cold outside for angels to fly,
C G D/F# Em C G
angels to fly
D4/F# Em C G
To fly,
Em C G
For angels to fly, to fly, to fly
D4/F# G
Or angels to die
