lyrics

Fields Of France Al Stewart

(C#m) (F#)(F#)(G#) (C#m) (B) (A) (E) (F#m7) (B)(B)(C#m)
His flying jacket still has (F#)her per(G#)fume,
(C#m)Memories of the (B)night
(A)Play across his (E)mind
(F#m7)High above the (B)fields of (C#m)France.
- Instrumental verse -

A single biplane in the (F#)clear blue (G#)sky,
(C#m)Nineteen seven(B)teen,
No (A)enemy was (E)seen
(F#m7)High above the (B)fields of (C#m)France.
- Instrumental verse -

Oh, she (A)looks, (F#m7)
But there's (B)nothing to (G#m)see,(C#m) (C#m7)
Still she (A)looks, (F#m7)
Saying, (B)“Come back to (G#m)me.” (G#)

(C#m) He tells her just remember (F#)me this (G#)way
For (C#m)here am I more (B)true
Than (A)anything I (E)do
(F#m7)High above the (B)fields of (C#m)France.
- Two instrumental verses -

Oh, she (A)looks, (F#m7)
Though he'll (B)never come (G#m)back,(C#m) (C#m7)
And the (A)letter that came (F#m7)
Was (B)bordered in (G#m) black. (G#)

(C#m) She'll find somebody else, but (F#)not for(G#)get,
(C#m)Leaving her re(B)grets
Like (A)vapour trails of (E)jets
(F#m7)High above the (B)fields of (C#m)France.
(F#)(F#)(G#) (C#m) (B) (A) (E)
(F#m7)High above the (B)fields of (C#m)France.
(F#)(F#)(G#) (C#m) (B) (A) (E) (F#m7) (B)(B)(C#m)

Why no free uploads? I cover songs. Register them with the German music rights agency GEMA. They hopefully reimburse the artists. The tax authorities demand that I make (not lose) a little money each year... ... more
