Elton John - Goodbye englands rose

^DGoodbye England's rose May you ever gr^Gow in our hearts You were the grace that pl^Daced itself Where lives were torn ap^Gart You called out to our co^Duntry And you whispered t^Go those in pain Now you belong to ^Dheaven And the stars spell out your n^Game

And it s^Aeems to me you l^A7ived your life Like a ca^Dndle in the w^Gind Never fad^Ding with the sunset When the r^Aain set in And your foo^Gtsteps will always fall here Along En^Bmgland's greenest hills Your candle's burned out lo^Ang before Your le^Ggend ever w^Dill

^DLoveliness we've lost These empty days wit^Ghout your smile This torch we'll always ca^Drry For our nation's golden ch^Gild And even though we ^Dtry The tr^Guth brings us to tears All our words can^Dnot express The joy you brought us through the y^Gears

And it s^Aeems to me you l^A7ived your life Like a ca^Dndle in the w^Gind Never fad^Ding with the sunset When the r^Aain set in And your foo^Gtsteps will always fall here Along En^Bmgland's greenest hills Your candle's burned out lo^Ang before Your le^Ggend ever w^Dill

^DGoodbye England's rose May you ever ^Ggrow in our hearts You were the grace that pla^Dced itself Where lives were torn a^Gpart ^DGoodbye England's rose From a country lost wi^Gthout your soul Who'll miss the wings of your com^Dpassion More than you'll ever k^Gnow

And it s^Aeems to me you l^A7ived your life Like a ca^Dndle in the w^Gind Never fad^Ding with the sunset When the r^Aain set in And your foo^Gtsteps will always fall here Along En^Bmgland's greenest hills Your candle's burned out lo^Ang before Your le^Ggend ever w^Dill

Your le^Ggend ever w^Dill
