What is it about you, makes me feel this way?
C Am
When I'm leaving you, when I'm coming home
F G
I'm lost for words to say.

And I know your faults and failures,

And the troubles that you've been through.
Bb Dm
But it's more about what happens now
Dm7 G
And what were coming to.
C F

Dm F
And the sun that shines on England
G C
Well it lifts the heart in me.

England, oh England

G C
Well it washes care from me.
C F C F C F Am Dm G
England, oh England
C F C F Dm F G C
England, oh England

And our accents and our colours change
