American Town

Ed Sheeran

We're a long

C

way from home

Haven't

Gsus4

seen you in so long

But it

Fadd9

all came back in one moment

And the

C

year started cold

But I didn't

Gsus4

notice at all

And when we

Fadd9

found there's a room we're both in

We get

C/E

Chinese food in small white boxes

F6

Live the life we saw in Friends

Your

Gsus4

room, it barely fits the mattress

G

Wake up, leave for work again

The

C/E

wind, it seems to blow right through us

F6

Down jackets are the trend

The

Gsus4

rush, we're rushing deep into love

English girl in an

C

American town

No elevator to the

C/E

fifth floor, I'll

Ring on the buzzer then you'll

Fmaj7

be right down

I wish time would

G

freeze

Dungarees over the

C

hoodie, we're out

Feet are three feet

C/E

off the ground

Lost in love and we don't

Fmaj7

wanna be found

It's just you and

G

me

My English girl in an

C

American town

C/E

In an A

Fmaj7

merican town

G

The

C

days come and go

But it

Gsus4

ends, windows closed

And the

Fadd9

scent of your perfume's on me

You're use

C

less with your phone

Electric

Gsus4

when one-on-one

I thought I

Fadd9

would be more nervous, darlin'

We watch

C/E

comedies and miss the endings

F6

Conversations till the dawn

Any

Gsus4

change in tide, we push against it

G

Challenge meanings in the songs

And

C/E

head out without a reservation

F6

Drinkin' out of paper bags

And

Gsus4

wasting time is time not wasted

G

With my English girl in an A

C

merican town

No elevator to the

C/E

fifth floor, I'll

Ring on the buzzer then you'll

Fmaj7

be right down

I wish time would

G

freeze

Dungarees over the

C

hoodie, we're out

Feet are three feet

C/E

off the ground

Lost in love and we don't

Fmaj7

wanna be found

It's just you and

G

me

My English girl in an A

Dm7

merican town

And when our eyes are

Am

closed together,

I can't ex

Fmaj7

plain

How the scent of your

G

perfume

Takes me to a higher

Dm7

place

We can watch it un

Am

fold

Or we can change how it

Fmaj7

takes

And we build when it

G

breaks down

We drink

C/E

Moscow Mules and steal the cups

From,

F6

mostly, the Bowery Bar

What a

Gsus4

perfect day to fall in love on

G

What a way to make a start

It ap

C/E

pears when you think all is lost, then

F6

You don't remember when it

Gsus4

started, never have to pretend

G

With my English girl in an A

C

merican town

No elevator to the

C/E

fifth floor, I'll

Ring on the buzzer then you'll

Fmaj7

be right down

I wish time would

G

freeze

Dungarees over the

C

hoodie, we're out

Feet are three feet

C/E

off the ground

Lost in love and we don't

Fmaj7

wanna be found

It's just you and

G

me

English girl in an A

C

merican town

No elevator to the

C/E

fifth floor, I'll

Ring on the buzzer then you'll

Fmaj7

be right down

I wish time would

G

freeze

Dungarees over the

C

hoodie, we're out

Feet are three feet

C/E

off the ground

Lost in love and we don't

Fmaj7

wanna be found

It's just you and

My English girl in an A
