American Town chords by Ed Sheeran

• Capo on 6th

♫ 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.
