Rose of England, sweet and fair

For where the thorn is, there the blood will run
Am Em Am D Em
Oh my heart, oh my heart
G
Through the summer days and nights
A C D

A C D Em
With all emotions that true love can bring

But black of mourning came one day
A C D
When her sister passed away

And many said, on bended knee
A C D Em
"She has gone, and you must be our Queen"

For where the thorn is, there the blood will run

To the abbey she did ride
A C D
With her lover by her side
Em G
When they heard the church bells ring
A C D Em
She was Queen and one day, he'd be King

But men of malice, men of hate

Protesting to her chambers came
Em G
"A foreign prince will have your hand,
A C D Em
For he'll bring peace and riches to our land"
A Em
She said, "Do you tell me that I cannot wed the one I love?
A B7 Em
Do you tell me that I am not mistress of my heart?"

Aah Aah Aah, Aah Aah Aah

For if I cannot have you, I'll have none"
