Ed Sheeran - The A Team

[Intro]

G D Em C G

[Verse 1]

G
White lips pale face
D Em
Breathing in snowflakes
C G
Burnt lungs sour taste
G
Light’s gone day’s end
D Em
Struggling to pay rent
C G
Long nights strange men

[Pre-Chorus]

Am
And they say
C
She’s in the Class A Team
G
Stuck in her daydream
D
Been this way since 18
Am
But lately her face seems
C
Slowly sinking wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries

And they scream
D
The worst things in life come free to us

[Chorus]

Em C
Cos we’re just under the upperhand
G
And go mad for a couple grams
Em C G
And she don’t want to go outside tonight
Em C
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
G
Or sells love to another man
Em C G
It’s too cold outside
Em C G
For angels to fly
Em C G
Angels to fly

[Verse 2]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

Am
And they say
C
She’s in the Class A Team
G
Stuck in her daydream
D
Been this way since 18
Am
But lately her face seems
C
Slowly sinking wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries

And they scream
D
The worst things in life come free to us

[Chorus]

Em C
Cos we’re just under the upperhand
G
And go mad for a couple grams
Em C G
And she don’t want to go outside tonight
Em C
And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
G
Or sells love to another man
Em C G
It’s too cold outside
Am
For angels to fly

[Bridge]

Am C
An angel will die
Em
Covered in white

Closed eye
G
And hoping for a better life
Am C
This time we’ll fade out tonight
Em C G
Straight down the line

Em C G

[Pre-Chorus]

Am
And they say
C
She’s in the Class A Team
G
Stuck in her daydream
D
Been this way since 18
Am
But lately her face seems
C
Slowly sinking wasting
G
Crumbling like pastries

And they scream
D
The worst things in life come free to us

[Chorus/Outro]

Em C
Cos we’re all under the upperhand
G
And go mad for a couple grams
Em C G
And we don’t want to go outside tonight
Em C
And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland
G
Or sell love to another man
Em C G
It’s too cold outside
Em C G
For angels to fly
Em C G
Angels to fly
Em C G
To fly fly
Em C G
Angels to fly to fly to fly
D G
Angels to die
