Ed Sheeran – A Team
Capo 2nd
Intro G | | |G D/F# |Em |Em C |G | ||
Verse 1
G D/F# Em
White lips, pale face, breathing in snowflakes,
C G
Burnt lungs, sour taste, light's gone, day's end,
D/F# Em C G
Struggling to pay rent, long nights, strange men.
Chorus
Am7 C G
And they say she's in the Class A Team, stuck in her daydream,
D/F# Am7
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems
C G
Slowly sinking, wasting, crumbling like pastries, and they scream,
D/F#
The worst things in life come free to us,
Em C G
‘Cause 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
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland, or sells love to another man,
Em C G D Em C G Em C G
It's too cold outside for angels to fly, angels to fly,
Verse 2
G D/F# Em
Ripped gloves, raincoat, tried to swim and stay afloat,
C G
Dry house, wet clothes, loose change, bank notes,
D/F# Em C G
Weary-eyed, dry throat, call girl, no phone.
Chorus
Am7 C G
And they say she's in the Class A Team, stuck in her daydream,
D/F# Am7
Been this way since 18, but lately her face seems
C G
Slowly sinking, wasting, crumbling like pastries, and they scream,
D/F#
The worst things in life come free to us,
Em C G
‘Cause 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
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland, or sells love to another man,
Em C G D Am7
It's too cold outside for angels to fly,
Bridge
C Em
An angel will die covered in white, closed eye,
G
And hoping for a better life,
Am7 C Em
This time, we'll fade out tonight, straight down the line.

It's too cold outside for angels to fly, fly, fly,
Em C G
Angels to fly, to fly, to fly, angels fly.
