I'm still not sure if it is "rose" or "road" but the majority seems to think of rose, so

D G
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]

I spend my days
Bm A G D
Just travelling and playing shows

And my heart still beats

for my home and my English rose

Uuuaaaaaaah

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"
[Chorus]
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
