Goodbye England's rose
               G
May you ever grow in our hearts
                          D
You were the grace that placed itself
                        G
Where lives were torn apart
                        D
You called out to our country
                   G
And you whispered to those in pain
                  D
Now you belong to heaven
                              G
And the stars spell out your name

        A               A7
And it seems to me you lived your life
         D            G
Like a candle in the wind
         D
Never fading with the sunset
          A
When the rain set in
            G
And your footsteps will always fall here
        Bm
Along England's greenest hills
                           A
Your candle's burned out long before
       G          D
Your legend ever will

D
Loveliness we've lost
                    G
These empty days without your smile
                          D
This torch we'll always carry
                          G
For our nation's golden child
                   D
And even though we try
      G
The truth brings us to tears
                 D
All our words cannot express
                                    G
The joy you brought us through the years

        A               A7
And it seems to me you lived your life
         D            G
Like a candle in the wind
         D
Never fading with the sunset
          A
When the rain set in
            G
And your footsteps will always fall here
        Bm
Along England's greenest hills
                           A
Your candle's burned out long before
       G          D
Your legend ever will

Goodbye England's rose
                      G
From a country lost without your soul
                                 D
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion
                       G
More than you'll ever know

        A               A7
And it seems to me you lived your life
         D            G
Like a candle in the wind
