• Difficulty: Intermediate

From the live acoustic video.

🎸 Verse 1:
    G5
We're a long way from home
    G/B
Haven't seen you in so long
    Csus2
But it all came back in one moment
    G5
And the year started cold
       G/B
But I didn't notice at all
    Csus2
When we found there's a room we're both in


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
    Am7
We eat Chinese food in small white boxes
C
 Live the life we saw in Friends
   G
Your room, it barely fits the mattress
D
 Wake up, leave for work again
  Am7
The wind, it seems to blow right through us
C
 Down jackets are the trend
  D
The rush of rushing deep into love


🎸 Chorus:
          G5
English girl in an American town
          G/B
No elevator to the fifth floor, I'll
                Cadd9
Ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down
            Dsus4
I wish time would freeze
          G5
Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
          G/B
Feet are three feet off the ground
             Cadd9
Lost in love and we don't wanna be found
         D
It's just you and me
            G5            G/B
My English girl in an American town (na na na na)
    Cadd9           Dsus4
In an American town (na na na na)


🎸 Verse 2:
G5
Days come and go
     G/B
But they end when doors close
    Cadd9
And the scent of your perfume's on me
     G5
You're useless with your phone
     G/B
Electric when one-on-one
      Cadd9
I thought I would be more nervous, darlin'


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
     Am7
We watch comedies and miss the endings
C
 Conversations till the dawn
  G
Any change in tide we push against it
D
 Challenge meanings in the song
   Am7
Then head out without a reservation
C
 Drinking out of paper bags
  D
And wasting time is time not wasted


🎸 Chorus:
              G5
With my English girl in an American town
          G/B
No elevator to the fifth floor, I'll
                Cadd9
Ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down
            Dsus4
I wish time would freeze
          G5
Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
          G/B
Feet are three feet off the ground
             Cadd9
Lost in love and we don't wanna be found
         D
It's just you and me
            Am7
My English girl in an American town


🎸 Bridge:
           Em               G
And when our eyes are closed together, I can't explain
           D
How the scent of your perfume takes me to a higher place
Am7         Em              G
 We can watch it unfold or we can change how it tastes
           Dsus4
And we build when it breaks down


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
     Am7
We drink Moscow Mules and steal the cups
  C
From, mostly the Bowery bar
    G
What a perfect day to fall in love on
D
 What a way to make a start
  Am7
It appears, when you think all is lost
  C
Then, you don't remember when
  Dsus4
It started never have to pretend


🎸 Chorus:
          G5
English girl in an American town
          G/B
No elevator to the fifth floor, I'll
                Cadd9
Ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down
            Dsus4
I wish time would freeze
          G5
Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
          G/B
Feet are three feet off the ground
             Cadd9
Lost in love and we don't wanna be found
         D
It's just you and me
            G5
My English girl in an American town
          G/B
No elevator to the fifth floor, I'll
                Cadd9
Ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down
         Dsus4
I wish time would freeze
          G5
Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out
          G/B
Feet are three feet off the ground
             Cadd9
Lost in love and we don't wanna be found
         D
It's just you and me
  N.C.
My English girl in an American town
