Intro Riff: G C1 G C1 G C1 G G/F#
Verse 1:
G G/F# Em
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes
C2 G C1
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

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
It's too cold outside for angels to fly
Am7 C3 Em
An angel will die, covered in white

Closed eye and hoping for a better life
Am7 C3 G'
This time, we'll fade out tonight, straight down the line
Mini-Solo: Play Twice!

For angels to fly to fly, fly

Or angels to die
Great tab but what exactly is the C1 chord?
To wsccsw: C1 can be played like Asus4(addG):
e--------3--------
B--------3--------
G--------0--------
D--------2--------
A--------0--------
E--------x--------
e--------3--------
B--------3--------
G--------0--------
D--------2--------
A--------3--------
E--------x--------
e--------3--------
B--------1--------
G--------0--------
D--------2--------
A--------3--------
E--------x--------
........C1........
Don't use the chords that UG shows when you hover over the C2 and C3 in the tab, instead:
The C2 chord sounds better as a CaddDaddG (which is the same as the C1 chord above, but with a C as the bass note):
........C2........
And the C3 can be played as
........C3........
I'm just a hack on the guitar, but I've played acoustic guitar for 35 years, and these chords sound decent to my ears.
These really seem like they should have a capo to me..
