Chords with lyrics (Ver. 2)
Verse 1:
FF
We're a long way from home
G+G
Haven't seen you in so long
C majorC
But it all came back in one moment
FF
And the year started cold
G+G
But I didn't notice at all
C majorC
And when we found there's a room we're both in
Pre-Chorus:
FF C majorC
We get Chinese food in small white boxes
Live the life we saw in Friends
G+G
Your room, it barely fits the mattress
Wake up, leave for work again
F minorFm
The wind, it seems to blow right through us
C majorC
Down jackets are the trend
G+G
The rush of rushing deep into love
Chorus:
FF
English girl in an American town
F minorFm
No elevator to the fifth floor
C majorC
I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down
G+G
I wish time would freeze
FF
Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
F minorFm
Feet are three feet off the ground
C majorC
Lost in love and we don't wanna be found
G+G
It's just you and me
FF F minorFm
My English girl in an American town
C majorC G+G
In an American town
Verse 2:
FF
Days come and go
G+G
But it ends when doors close
C majorC
And the scent of your perfume's on me
FF
You're useless with your phone
G+G
Electric when one-on-one
C majorC
I thought I would be more nervous, darlin'
Pre-Chorus:
FF
We watch comedies and miss the endings
C majorC
Conversations till the dawn
G+G
Any change in tide, we push against it
Challenge meanings in the songs
F minorFm
And head out without a reservation
C majorC
Drinkin' out of paper bags
G+G
And wasting time is time not wasted
Chorus:
FF
English girl in an American town
F minorFm
No elevator to the fifth floor
C majorC
I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down
G+G
I wish time would freeze
FF
Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
F minorFm
Feet are three feet off the ground
C majorC
Lost in love and we don't wanna be found
G+G
It's just you and me
G minorGm
My English girl in an American town
Bridge:
F minorFm C majorC
And when our eyes are closed together, I can't explain
G+G G minorGm
How the scent of your perfume takes me to a higher place
F minorFm C majorC
We can watch it unfold or we can change how it takes
G+G
And rebuild when it breaks down
Pre-Chorus:
F minorFm
We drink Moscow Mules and steal the cups
C majorC
From, mostly, the Bowery Bar
G+G
What a perfect day to fall in love on
What a way to make a start
F minorFm
And it appears, when you think all is lost
C majorC G+G
Then, you don't remember when it started
Never have to pretend
Chorus:
FF
English girl in an American town
F minorFm
No elevator to the fifth floor
C majorC
I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down

I wish time would freeze

Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
F minorFm
Feet are three feet off the ground
C majorC
Lost in love and we don't wanna be found
G+G
It's just you and me
FF
English girl in an American town
F minorFm
No elevator to the fifth floor
C majorC
I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down
G+G
I wish time would freeze

Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
F minorFm
Feet are three feet off the ground

Lost in love and we don't wanna be found

It's just you and me
