D                 G   D
Across the sea
        G         D
By the Tenessee skyline
      G           D       A            D
They told me I'd find my hopes and my dreams

    D           G  D
But I long to be
        G          D
in the bed of my true love
G             D                A          D
Back where I came from, she's waiting for me

        D/F#  G    A
So I'll make  my  way
        Bm    A       G        D
Through lone winding country roads
        G      A    Bm
But my heart still beats
        G          A        D
for my home and my English rose

( D G )

D          G    D
I told my dad
        G            D
on the phone "it's amazing"
            G             D         A          D
from the straight to the craziest places I've been

    D         G   D
But I long to be
       G           D
in the arms of my true love
     G            D         A           D
like he loves my mother, he understands me

   D/F#   G   A
I spend  my  days
       Bm      A     G         D
Just travelling and playing shows
        G      A    Bm
And my heart still beats
        G          A        D
for my home and my English rose

G   A   Bm   D
Uuuuuuuuuh
G   A   Bm   D
Uuuaaaaaaah
G   A   D
Uuuaaaaaaah

D       G   D
I met a man
     G            D
in a bar down in Memphis
        G          D             A           D
and he told me he went there to follow his dreams

    D            G   D
And he told me "son
         G           D
You know I lost my true love
         G          D           A               D
For the same exact reason that you crossed the sea"

   D/F#    G     A
And I    found truth
    Bm   A   G       D
in people I barely know
        G      A    Bm
And my heart still beats
        G          A        D
for my home and my English rose
        G      A    Bm
And my heart still beats
        G          A        D
for my home and my English rose
        G      A    Bm
And my heart still beats
        G          A        D
for my home and my English rose
