E
A
In his arms she fell as her hair came down among the fields
of gold.
Will you stay with me?
Will you be my love among the fields of barley?
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky when we lie in fields
of gold.
See the west wind move like a lover so upon the fields of
barley.
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth among the fields
of gold.
BRIDGE:

I never made promises lightly
A
And there have been some that I've broken
A
Fm7 D
But I swear in the days still left
B7 E A
We'll walk in fields of gold
B7 E A
We'll walk in fields of gold
Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley.
See the children run as the sun goes down among the fields of
gold.
You'll remember me when the west wind moves upon the fields
of barley.
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold.
When we walked in fields of gold.
When we walked in fields of gold
