Drop D (D A D G A D)




D               G 

D                 G   D 
Across the sea 
        G         D 
By the Tenessee skyline 
      G           D       A            D 
They told me I'd find my hopes and my dreams 

    D           G  D 
But I long to be 
        G          D 
in the bed of my true love 
G             D                A          D 
Back where I came from, she's waiting for me 

        D/F#  G    A 
So I'll make  my  way 
        Bm    A       G        D 
Through lone winding country roads 
        G      A    Bm 
But my heart still beats 
        G          A        D 
for my home and my English rose 

D               G 

D          G    D 
I told my dad 
        G            D 
on the phone "it's amazing" 
            G             D         A          D 
from the straight to the craziest places I've been 

    D         G   D 
But I long to be 
       G           D 
in the arms of my true love 
     G            D         A           D 
like he loves my mother, he understands me 

   D/F#   G   A 
I spend  my  days 
       Bm      A     G         D 
Just travelling and playing shows 
        G      A    Bm 
And my heart still beats 
        G          A        D 
for my home and my English rose 

G   A   Bm   D 
Uuuuuuuuuh 
G   A   Bm   D 
Uuuaaaaaaah 
G   A   D 
Uuuaaaaaaah 

D       G   D 
I met a man 
     G            D 
in a bar down in Memphis 
        G          D             A           D 
and he told me he went there to follow his dreams 

    D            G   D 
And he told me "son 
         G           D 
You know I lost my true love 
         G          D           A               D 
For the same exact reason that you crossed the sea" 

   D/F#    G     A 
And I    found truth 
    Bm   A   G       D 
in people I barely know 
        G      A    Bm 
And my heart still beats 
        G          A        D 
for my home and my English rose 
        G      A    Bm 
And my heart still beats 
        G          A        D 
for my home and my English rose 
        G      A    Bm 
And my heart still beats 
        G          A        D 
for my home and my English rose
