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

[B] [A]
[E] [B]
[E] Goodbye Ingram's Rose, may you [A] ever grow in our hearts,
You were the [E] grace that placed us where lives were torn [A] apart.
[E] Goodbye Ingram's Rose, from a country [A] lost without your soul,
We'll miss the wings of your [E] compassion more than you will ever [A] know.
[B] And it seems to me you've lived your life [E] like a candle in the [A] wind,
[E] Never fading with the sunset [B] when the rain set in.
[A] And your footsteps will always fall here,
