Intro 1
(A major)
Verse 1
Two morning (E minor) clad in (B minor) purest white,
Blake's (D major) heaven locks the light.
(A major) In the (E minor) blanket cloud of slug (B minor) gish sun
As red (D major) subsides the night
(A major) And his flame (G major) ignites the (D major) moral plight
Which dozes (A major)
Upon (G major) the dream of which (D major)
the earth disposes (A major)
His dream (F sharp minor) is starved,
but (E minor) Finn and Bob (D major) des (A major) pise
He's (B minor) welcome in the bed (F sharp minor)
of (D major) English roses (G major) (D major) (A major)
The Ju (E minor) das and assas (B minor) sins
sing in (D major) cracked and cackled tongues (A major)
As the (E minor) self -esteem of houses (B minor)
bark at the (D major) caskets made (A major) (D major) of (A major) bones
But death (G major) and war descend
(D major) on he who chooses (A major)
And fate (G major) is always reaped
(D major) by he who (A major) seizes
And (F sharp minor) he who's born is (E minor) sure to die (D major) alone
(A major) Except (B minor) when in the bed (F sharp minor) of (D major) English
Roses (G major) (B minor) (F sharp minor) (D major) (A major)
The sun (E minor) light has no (B minor) ap petite
for faith (D major) beyond the rock (A major)
It chews (E minor) and climbs the (B minor) air less sky
where it's (D major) dying embers flock (A major)
But the (G major) lover's writ is fit (D major)
for eyes that froze (A major) it
And (G major) ears that sorts the pas (D major)
t that it com (A major) poses
It's (F sharp minor) liv ing now,
but soon (E major) its time (D major) will stop (A major)
But it's (B minor) endless in the (F sharp minor) bed
of (D major) English Roses (G major) (D major)
Be (A major) lief (E minor) the sails of (B minor) jealousy,
over which (D major) his burdens leap. (A major)
The king (E minor) and powers pass (B minor) their eyes
over a (D major) table of earth's (A major) feast and they feed (G major)
on thoughts of battles (D major) he pro (A major) poses
and the (G major) poverty of hate (D major)
that he fore (A major) closes
But his (F sharp minor) hunger and his self
(E major) -righteous (E minor) (D major) ness will cease
(A major) When he (B minor) climbs into the (F sharp minor) bed of
(D major) English roses (G major) (D major) (F sharp minor) (A major)
The rap (E minor) per and the crooner
(B minor) croak like birds (D major) inside a flame
(A major) Their voices (E minor) call conflict (B minor) ing starts
but both (D major) end up the same
(A major) They boast (G major) a mark of God (D major)
all creed op (A major) poses
A doubtless (G major) dog of faith
(D major) that outranks Moses (A major)
Their throat (F sharp minor) s are burned
and their (E major) tongues are (D major) churned and lamed (A major)
But they (B minor) sing inside the (F sharp minor) bed of
(D major) English roses (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
The la (E minor) boured shotguns
(B minor) harmonise with the (D major) distant
thunder's (A major) band
Each (E minor) note in sync sounds (B minor) sinking more
than their (D major) money changes hand (A major) s
And in (G major) the wreckage lies a
(D major) charred -like flint un (A major) loaded
In the (G major) barrel that the gale (D major)
wind's breath ex (A major) poses
The vault (F sharp minor) erupts and cor
(E major) rupts the shape (D major) of sand (A major)
But it's quiet (B minor) upon the bed (F sharp minor)
of (D major) English roses (G major) (D major) (A major)
The (E minor) eyeless streams of (B minor) destiny
wrap a (D major) rope around my waist (A major)
And pull (E minor) and drag me (B minor) an d the stars
to the (D major) same preordained place (A major)
And the (G major) chance to drown
is there (D major) and never closes (A major)
For des (G major) tiny ignores (D major) the risk it (A major) poses
And to have (F sharp minor) lost and life is true, (E major)
say (D major) he who knows (A major) it,
it's who (B minor) knows inside the (F sharp minor) bed of (D major) English
(G major) Rose. (D major) (A major) (B minor) (F sharp minor) (D major) (G major)
(D major)
You (A major)
