Oh! England, my Lionheart, 

Bm          Bm                          A
I'm in your garden, fading fast in your arms. 

Am           Bm                 Bm
The soldiers soften, the war is over. 

Am           Bm           Bm
The air raid shelters are blooming clover. 

Am       Bm        Bm       Am
Flapping umbrellas fill the lanes--

My London Bridge in rain again.

Oh! England, my Lionheart!

You read me Shakespeare on the rolling Thames-- 

Am             Bm        Bm      Bm7
That old river poet that never, ever ends. 

    Am       Bm     Bm       Am
Our thumping hearts hold the ravens in, 

    Am       Bm         Bm Bm7 Bm
And keep the tower from tumbling.

Oh! England, my Lionheart!

Dropped from my black Spitfire to my funeral barge. 

Am      Bm          Bm
Give me one kiss in apple-blossom. 

Am      Bm            Bm     Bm7
Give me one wish, and I'd be wassailing 

Am     Bm          Bm      Am
In the orchard, my English rose, 

           Bm               Bm Bm7   Bm
Or with my shepherd, who'll bring me home.
