Capo 3
Introduction/Chorus:
G
England may keep the faith
For what's been done and said
C7 Repeat twice then go to Verse
We know their dreams enough to know
They dreamed and they are dead
Verse
G
Too long, too long a sacrifice
C7
Can make a cold stone of the heart
But when will it suffice?
G
That is Heaven's part, our part
To name the name upon the name After verse repeat Chorus twice then go back to Verse
G
Like a mother names her babe then back to Chorus once then go to end
When rest at last has come
G
On limbs that have run wild
What is it but nightfall
C7
Oh no, not night but a death
And needless death after all
Ending:
G
England may keep the faith
C7 Repeat ending until end
England may keep the faith
