The red in the flag is the blood that was spilt
in the way            that your forefathers tell
And never a country been so great

The stories Britannia could tell

G                 C         Dsus4
I never want to live my life
away from the golden shores
Theres never a country in the world

The pride and the joy and the love
G                                      Dsus4       D
that comes from your mother of red, white and blue

You could never be born under a flag   thats like the one of the Union Jack
A                       C#        D          E
