^GGoodbye England’s rose, may you ever^Cgrow in our hearts.

You were the grace that^Gplaced itself where lives were torn^Capart.

You called out to our^Gcountry, and you whispered to^Cthose in pain.

Now you belong to^Gheaven, and the stars spell out your^Cname.



R: And it^Dseems to me you lived your life like a^Gcandle in the^Cwind.



Never^Gfading with the sunset when the^Drain set in.



And your^Cfootsteps will always fall here along^EmiEngland’s greenest

hills.

^GYour candle burned out^Dlong before, your^Clegend ever will.

Loveliness we’ve lost, these empty days without your smile

This torch we’ll always carry for our nation’s golden child.

And even though we try, the truth brings us to tears.

All our words cannot express the joy you brought us through the years.

Ref.

Goodbye England’s rose, may you ever grow in our hearts

You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart.

Goodbye England’s rose, from a country lost without your soul

Who’ll miss the wings of your compassion more than you will ever know.



And it^Dseems to me you lived your life like a^Gcandle in the^Cwind.



Never^Gfading with the sunset when the^Drain set in.



And your^Cfootsteps will always fall here along^EmiEngland’s greenest

hills.



^GYour candle burned out^Dlong before, your^Clegend ever will.



^CAnd your footsteps will always^Emifall here along England’s

greenest hills.



^GYour candle burned out^Dlong before, your^Clegend ever will.
