[Intro]
B B7 E B7 E B
[Verse 1]
E A
Goodbye England's Rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
E A E A
You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart
E A
You called out to our country, and you whispered, to those in pain
E A
Now you belong to heaven, and the stars spell out your name
[Chorus]
B B7 E A
And it seems to me you lived your life, like a candle in the wind
E Esus4 E B
Never fading with the sunset, when the rain set in
A C#m
And your footsteps will always fall here along England's greenest hills
B A G#m F#m E
Your candle's burned out long before your legend ever will
[Verse 2]
E A
Loveliness we've lost, these empty days without your smile
E A E A
This torch we'll always carry, for our nation's golden child
E A
And even though we try, the truth brings us to tears
E A
All our words cannot express the joy you brought us through the years
[Chorus]
B B7 E A
And it seems to me you lived your life, like a candle in the wind
E Esus4 E B
Never fading with the sunset, when the rain set in

And your footsteps will always fall here along England's greenest hills
B A G#m F#m E
Your candle's burned out long before your legend ever will
[Verse 3]
E A
Goodbye England's Rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
E A E A
You were the grace that placed itself, where lives were torn apart
E A
Goodbye England's Rose, from a country lost without your soul
E A E A
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion, more than you'll ever know
[Chorus]
B B7 E A
And it seems to me you lived your life, like a candle in the wind
E Esus4 E B
Never fading with the sunset, when the rain set in
A C#m
And your footsteps will always fall here along England's greenest hills
B A G#m F#m E
Your candle's burned out long before your legend ever will
[Outro]
A C#m
And your footsteps will always fall here along England's greenest hills

Your candle's burned out long before your legend ever will
