The A Team

• G

Intro: G  C  G  C  G  C  G  G/F# 

G                              G        Em 
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes 
      C             G        C 
Burnt lungs, sour taste 
G                                      G Em 
Light's gone, day's end, struggling to pay rent 
           C        G 
Long nights, strange men 

Am7                              C                   G 
And they say she's in the Class A Team, stuck in her daydream 
                    D               Am7                          C 
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems, slowly sinking, wasting 
               G                              D 
Crumbling like pastries, and they scream the worst things in life come free to us 
          Em          C            G 
Cos she's 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 
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland, or sells love to another man 
Em       C        G       D/F#      Em 
It's too cold outside for angels to fly, 
 C    G          Em   C   G    G/F# 
for angels to fly 

G                                  G             Em 
Ripped gloves, raincoat, tried to swim and stay afloat 
     C           G       C 
Dry house, wet clothes 
G                                       G  Em 
Loose change, bank notes, weary-eyed, dry throat 
        C      G 
Call girl, no phone 

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 she's 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 
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland, or sells love to another man 
Em       C       G       D/F#      Em 
It's too cold outside for angels to fly, 
 C    G         Em   C   G    G/F# 
for angels to fly 

Am7           C               Em 
An angel will die, covered in white 
       G/F#    G 
Closed eye and hoping for a better life 
Am7                      C -slide-D 
Em   C   G  D/F# 
This time, we'll fade out tonight, straight down the line 
                    Em   C  G  D/F# 
Straight down the line 

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 she's 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 
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland, or sells love to another man 
Em       C        G       D/F#      Em 
It's too cold outside for angels to fly, to fly to fly 
    D        G 
or angels to die
