G C
1.Goodbye England’s rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
G C
You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart.
G C
You called out to our country, and you whispered to those in pain.
G C
Now you belong to heaven, and the stars spell out your name.
Chorus:
D G C
And it seems to me you lived your life like a candle in the wind.
G D
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in.
C Em
And your footsteps will always fall here along England’s greenest hills
G D C
Your candle burned out long before, your legend ever will.
G C
2.Loveliness we’ve lost, these empty days without your smile
G C
This torch we’ll always carry for our nation’s golden child.
G C
And even though we try, the thruth brings us to tears
G C
All our words cannot express the joy you brought us through the years.
Chorus:
D G C
And it seems to me you lived your life like a candle in the wind.
G D
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in.
C Em
And your footsteps will always fall here along England’s greenest hills
G D C
Your candle burned out long before, your legend ever will.
G C
3.Goodbye England’s rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
G C
You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart.
G C
Goodbye England’s rose, from a country lost without your soul
G C
Who’ll miss the wings of your compassion more than you will ever know.
Chorus:
D G C
And it seems to me you lived your life like a candle in the wind.
G D
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in.
C Em
And your footsteps will always fall here along England’s greenest hills
G D C
Your candle burned out long before, your legend ever will.
