CANDLE IN THE WIND 1997
Elton John

Mi7                                  La
Goodbye England's rose may you ever grow in our hearts
                          Mi
You were the grace that placed itself 
                       La  Re
Where lives were torn apart
                        Mi   Mi7
You called out to our country 
           La
And you whispered to those in pain
                    Mi            Mi7                  La Re
Now you belong to heaven and the stars spell out your name

        Si              Si7
And it seems to me you lived your life
         Mi           La
Like a candle in the wind
        Mi                             Si
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in
            La
And your footsteps will always fall here
        Do#-
Along England's greenest hills
                        Si                La            Mi
Your candle burned out long before your legend ever will

Loveliness we've lost these empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always carry for our nation's golden child
And even though we try the truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you brought us through the years

Goodbye England's rose may you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed itself
Where lives were torn apart
Goodbye England's rose from a country lost
Without your soul
Who'll miss the wings of your compassion
More than you'll ever know

Rit. (2v.)
