Weʼre a Clong way from home

Havenʼt seen you in so long
But it Fall came back in one moment

And the Cyear started cold

But I didnʼt notice at all
And when we Ffound thereʼs a room weʼre both in

Pre-Chorus:
    We get DmChinese food in small white boxes
    FLive the life we saw in Friends
    Your Croom, it barely fits the mattress
    GWake up, leave for work again

    The Dmwind, it seems to blow right through us
    FDown jackets are the trend
    The Grush, weʼre rushing deep into love

Chorus:
    English girl in an AmCerican town

No elevator to the fifth floor
    Iʼll ring on the buzzer, then youʼll Fbe right down
    I wish time would Gfreeze

    Dungarees over the Choodie, weʼre out

Feet are three feet off the ground
    Lost in love and we donʼt Fwanna be found
    Itʼs just you and Gme

    My English girl in an ACmerican town
    In an AmFerican town G 

CDays come and go

But it ends windows closed
And the Fscent of your perfumeʼs on me

Youʼre useCless with your phone

Electric when one-on-one
I thought I Fwould be more nervous, darlinʼ

Pre-Chorus:
    We watch Dmcomedies and miss the endings
    FConversations till the dawn
    And your Cchanginʼ tide, we push against it
    GChallenge meanings in the songs

    And Dmhead out without a reservation
    FDrinkinʼ out of paper bags
    And Gwasting time is time not wasted

Chorus:
    For my English girl in an AmCerican town

No elevator to the fifth floor
    Iʼll ring on the buzzer, then youʼll Fbe right down
    I wish time would Gfreeze

    Dungarees over the Choodie, weʼre out

Feet are three feet off the ground
    Lost in love and we donʼt Fwanna be found
    Itʼs just you and Gme

Bridge:
    My English girl in an AmDmerican town
    And when our eyes are Amclosed together, I canʼt explaCin
    How the scent of your Gperfume takes me to a higher Dmplace
    We can watch it unAmfold or we can change how it Ctakes
    And we build when it Gbreaks down

Pre-Chorus:
    We drink DmMoscow Mules and steal the cups
    FromF, mostly the Bowery bar
    What a Cperfect day to fall in love on
    GWhat a way to make a start

    And it apDmpears, when you think all is lost
    FThen, you donʼt remember when it Gstarted

Never have to pretend

Chorus:
    With my English girl in an AmCerican town

No elevator to the fifth floor
    Iʼll ring on the buzzer, then youʼll Fbe right down
    I wish time would Gfreeze

    Dungarees over the Choodie, weʼre out

Feet are three feet off the ground
    Lost in love and we donʼt Fwanna be found
    Itʼs just you and Gme

    English girl in an AmCerican town

No elevator to the fifth floor
    Iʼll ring on the buzzer, then youʼll Fbe right down
    I wish time would Gfreeze

    Dungarees over the Choodie, weʼre out

Feet are three feet off the ground
    Lost in love and we donʼt Fwanna be found
    Itʼs just you and Gme
