01. The Words "I Love You" 2:58
Tabbed by: NBA96
Intro: D
Verse 1:
Bm F#m G A
There are those who think that love comes with a lifetime guarantee,
Bm F#m G A
But we know from those around us, that this may not always be,
G D G D G D A
It's the simple things that come between a father and a son,
G D G D G D A
But when they try to talk, the knives are out before they have begun
Chorus:
D A Bm G
Well that was me, and I have seen the light that shines for eternity,
D G A D
Because I learned to say the words “"I love you"
Verse 2:
Bm F#m G A
So many hearts have been broken by the lies of history,
Bm F#m G A
And so many arms are still open for that final mystery,
G D G D G D A
We must show respect for all the rest, and what a man believes,
G D G D G D A
And the one who died upon the cross, well he is the one for me
Chorus:
D A Bm
And he said "Come with me and you will see the light that shines
G D G A D
For eternity, be strong and learn to say the words "I love you"
Bridge:
Bm F#m G D Bm F#m A
And this endless road that we are on just keeps on going round,
G D A
But there's one destination that always is here to be found
Chorus:
D A Bm G
So come with me, and you will see the light that shines for eternity,
D G A D
Be strong and learn to say the words "I love you",
D G A D
Be strong and learn to say the words "I love you",
A D A D A D
The words "I love you", the words "I love you", the words "I love you".

03. Rose of England (Chords) 5:12
Tabbed by: frankowillo
Em G
Hear my voice and listen well
A C D
And a story I will tell
Em G
How duty brought a broken heart
A C D Em
And why a love so strong must fall apart
G
She was lovely, she was fine
A C D
Daughter of a royal line
Em G
He, no equal, but for them
A C D Em
It mattered little for they were in love
CHORUS:
C G
Rose of England, sweet and fair
D Em
Shining with the sun
C G
Rose of England, have a care
Am B Em
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
Stolen kisses and delights
Em G
Would thrill their hearts and fill their dreams
A C D Em
With all emotions that true love can bring
G
But black of mourning came one day
A C D
When her sister passed away
Em G
And many said, on bended knee
A C D Em
"She has gone, and you must be our Queen"
CHORUS:
C G
Rose of England, sweet and fair
D Em
Shining with the sun
C G
Rose of England, have a care
Am B Em
For where the thorn is, there the blood will run
Am Em Am D Em
Oh my heart, oh my heart
G
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
G
But men of malice, men of hate
A C D
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"
BRIDGE:
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?"
Am Em Am D Em
Aah Aah Aah, Aah Aah Aah
G
And so with heavy weight of life
A C D
She kissed her lover one last time
Em G
"This land I wed, and no man comes
A C D Em
For if I cannot have you, I'll have none"
CHORUS:
C G
Rose of England, sweet and fair
D Em
Shining with the sun
C G
Rose of England, have a care
Am B Em
For where the thorn is, there the blood will run
Am Em Am D Em
Oh my heart, oh my heart
OUTRO:
C G D Em
C G Am B Em
Am Em Am D Em
Oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
