1st verse:
C#m             A                                (C#m)
My you did look dapper in your mothers old green scarf
C#m                  A                   (C#m)
 With your famous Aunty, Arthurs trousers on
C#m                   A                (C#m)
 Got slapped by that slapper and we all laughed
C#m                   A          E
 But she laughed the loudest in 93
    E
You could charm the bees knees of the bees


2nd verse :
C#m             A                    (C#m)
 "Cheeky" you'd say and we all fell around
C#m                 A      
 Rolling around the playground
C#m            A                   (C#m)
 "Saucy" you'd say and we all fell about 
C#m                 A              E
 Rolling 'round the playground in 94
E            E
We all sang skipping and dancing hand in hand


Pre-chorus :
D                        E
Yeah it was all the boys together
D                  E           E
 And all the girls together_____

 
Chorus :
A          E           D       A
 She's the last of the English ro-oses
A          E           D       A         E    E
 She's the last of the English ro-oses

C#m                               A                               C#m      A
  She knows her Rodneys from her Stanleys and her Kappas from her Reebok
C#m                    A                            C#m      A
 And her tit from her tat and her Winstons from her Enoks
         E             E
It’s fine and take what I Coming out, coming alive



4th verse :
C#m                    A                            C#m      A
 And round the Snooker table she danced the Frutti-Tutti
C#m                         A                             C#m       A
 And she almost spilled her lager toasting girls of great beauty
         E               E
But the closing moved by coming of age, coming alive


Pre-chorus :
D             E
 All the boys together
D                  E           E
 And all the girls together_____


Chorus :
A          E           D       A
 She's the last of the English ro-oses
A          E           D       A
 She's the last of the English ro-oses
A          E           D       A
 She's the last of the English ro-oses
A          E           D       A         E    E
 She's the last of the English ro-oses
