Taupin Tribute to Princess Diana Please note: This version does not necessarily reflect the key Elton John uses in his interpretation of his song. (A capo should be used to match the key which bests enables you and yours to sing Candle in the Wind) G C Goodbye England's rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
CYou were the grace that Gplaced itself where lives were torn apartC G C You called out to our country, and you whispered to those in pain. Now you belong to heaGven, and the stars spell out your nameC.
Chorus: D D7 And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a cGandle in the windC G D Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in C Em And your footsteps will always fall here along England's greenest hills G D C Your candles burned out long before your legend ever will.
Verse no. 2: G C Loveliness we've lost, these empty days without your smile G C This torch we'll always carry for our nation's golden child
And even though we Gtry, the truth brings us to Ctears All our words Gcannot express the joy you brought us through the Cyears.
Chorus: D D7 And it seems to me you lived your life G C Like a candle in the wind G D Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in C Em And your footsteps will always fall here along England's greenest hills
GYour candles burned out lDong before your lCegend ever will.G
Verse no. 3: G C Goodbye England's rose, may you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that Gplaced itself where lives were torn apartC G C Goodbye England's rose, from a country lost without your soul Who'll miss the wings of your Gcompassion more than you'll ever knowC.
Chorus: D D7 And it seems to me you lived your life G C Like a candle in the wind G D Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in C Em And your footsteps will always fall here along England's greenest hills
GYour candles burned out Dlong before your Clegend ever will.G Repeat last part of Chorus... C Em And your footsteps will always fall here among England's greenest hills G D C G Your candles burned out long before your legend ever will.
