♫ Intro: G ♫ Verse 1: G We're a long way from home G Haven't seen you in so long C D But it all came back in one moment G And the year started cold G But I didn't notice at all C D When we found there's a room we're both in ♫ Pre-Chorus: Am We ate 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 Am And head out without a reservation C Drinking out of paper bags D And wasting time is time not wasted
♫ Chorus: G My English girl in an American town G No elevator to the fifth floor C I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down D I wish time would freeze G Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out G Feet are three feet off the ground C Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found D It's just you and me G My English girl in an American town, na-na-na, na-na C D In an American town, na-na-na, na-na ♫ Verse 2: G And the days come and go G But in the end, windows closed C D And the scent of the perfume on me G Put your Swiss on your phone G Electric when one on one C D I thought I would be more nervous, darling ♫ Pre-Chorus: Am We watch comedies then miss the ending C Conversations till the dawn G And, your changing tide, we push against it D Challenge meanings in the songs Am Then head out without a reservation C Drinking out of paper bags D And wasting time is time not wasted ♫ Chorus: G My English girl in an American town G No elevator to the fifth floor C I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down D I wish time would freeze G Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out G Feet are three feet off the ground C Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found D It's just you and me Am My English girl in an American town ♫ Bridge: Em And, when our eyes are close together G I can't explain D Am How the scent of your perfume takes me to a higher place Em G We can watch it unfold or we can change how it takes D And we build when it breaks down ♫ Pre-Chorus: Am We drink Moscow mules and steal the cups from C Mostly the Bowery bar G What a perfect day to fall in love on D What a way to make a start Am It appears when you think all is lost C D Then, you don't remember when it started Never have to pretend with ♫ Chorus: G My English girl in an American town G No elevator to the fifth floor C I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down D I wish time would freeze G Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out G Feet are three feet off the ground C Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found D It's just you and me ♫ Chorus: G My English girl in an American town G No elevator to the fifth floor C I'll ring on the buzzer, then you'll be right down D I wish time would freeze G Dungarees over the hoodie, we're out G Feet are three feet off the ground C Lost in love, and we don't wanna be found D It's just you and me N.C.
