THE ONE ABOUT ENGLAND: RODNEY CROWELL (88 – 4/4) (Rodney Crowell)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++INTRO:

|D    |E    |G    |D    |: 2x

 D                                |E
 MERRY ENGLAND LIVES JUST SOUTH OF NOTTINGHILL,
  |G                                    |D
IN DAILY DREAMS OF SHAKESPEARE LIKE SOME PISCES WILL.
|./.                               |E
 THOUGH SHE'S NEVER BEEN BEYOND THE LADBROKE GATE,
   |G                               |D
THE WORLD HAS SPUN AROUND THERE MANY TIMES OF LATE.

   |Bm                |D
CAN CAROLINE REMEMBER, HE THAT DID BEFRIEND HER,
   |G                                  |D -             A   |A
AND SCARCELY TOUCHED THE BEAUTY, OF THE SADNESS  ON HER SOUL.
  |Bm                      |D
SO SUBTLE WERE THE CHANGES, NO ONE EVEN NOTICED,
  |G                            |D -            A   |A
SO MANY YEARS OF CRYING  AND SHE BARELY  LET IT SHOW.
        |G -               A7           |D    |./.   |E    |G    |D    |
IT'S THE PRICE YOU HAVE TO PA-Y  TO GROW OLD.

D                                     |E
ENGLAND'S TURNING GREEN FROM ALL THOSE YEARS OF RAIN,
    |G                             |D           |
LIKE MOSS ALONG THE FENCES DOWN OL' MEMORY LANE.
./.                         |E
POETRY IN MOTION WHILE SHE'S STANDING STILL,
    |G                       |D
SOME MAIDEN IN A CASTLE UP ON NOTTING-HILL.

|D    |E    |G    |D    |./.   |E    |G    |D - A |
                       
 |D                        |Bm                 |G -    A7    |D     |
I DREA-M OF ENGLAND AND HER AU - BURN HAIR, AND I MISS CA-RO- LINE.
