Fields Of St Etienne

Mary Hopkins


Tom: C#m

C#m                    F#m
Through the fields of Saint Etienne
 B                 E G#7
Amidst the corn I wander
C#m           F#m
In my hand an ear of corn
    B              E
The morning dew has kissed

[Chorus]

C#                F#m
Here beneath the skies
B             E
I lay with my lover
G#7               C#m           F#m      G#
While the summer winds gave it clouds of war
C#            F#m
Au revoir my love
B                  E
Though the reasons pass me
G#7             C#m         F#m      G#     C#m
Why we can't remain in the fields of St. Etienne

[Verse]

C#m               F#m
Weaving proudly, singing loudly
B               E G#7
Being young and foolish
C#m           F#m
He was going never knowing
B              E
He would not return

[Chorus]

C#               F#m
Singing songs of war
B                  E
Filled fith God and country
G#7               C#m           F#m       G#
Marching down the road with the boys that day
C#            F#m
Au revoir my love
B                  E
Though the reasons pass me
G#7             C#m         F#m      G#     C#m
Why we can't remain in the fields of St. Etienne
