Verse 1:
G G/f# Em
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes

Burnt lungs, sour taste
G G/f# Em
Lights gone, days end, struggling to pay rent
C2 G
Long nights, strange men
Chorus:
Am7 C3 G'
And they say she's in the Class A Team, stuck in her daydream
D/F# Am7 C3
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 C2 G
Cos she's just under the upperhand, and go mad for a couple of grams
Em C2 G
And she don't want to go outside tonight
Em C2 G
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland, or sells love to another man
Em C2 G D/F# Em
C2 G
It's too cold outside for angels to fly,
Em C2 G G/f#
for angels to fly
Verse 2:
G G/f# Em
Ripped gloves, raincoat, tried to swim and stay afloat
C2 G C1
Dry house, wet clothes
G G/f# Em
Loose change, bank notes, weary-eyed, dry throat
C2 G
Call girl, no phone
