Intro:

E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE EsusEsus E MajorE


    E MajorE
 I am fragile in the morning, I grow stronger in the day
                             A augmentedA
 I can sprint like a new spring doe by the fall of the night
      E MajorE
 Oh, and love has chased me down, through the cities and the towns
                       A augmentedA
 Until I stood beside the road and let it pass me by
     B/D#B/D#                E MajorE    (EsusEsus E MajorE )
 Like a fool, I've missed the rain 'cause I was cryin'.

        A/EA/E    B/E              E MajorE
 Then you are calling - call my heart awake from years of slumber
        A/EA/E      B/E              E MajorE
 And then I'm falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer.


       A augmentedA        BB                E MajorE
 But can you hold me though I am inclined to leave my home and wander?
       Asus2Asus2      BB              E MajorE
 Oh, can you keep me like a child head over heel in fields of summer?
 A augmentedA BB    E MajorE    A augmentedA BB    E MajorE
 Fi-elds of summer - fi-elds of summer
    Asus2Asus2     BB               E MajorE
 I am falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer.


   E MajorE
 And now that you have caught me, are you sure you really want me
                     D/AD/A      A augmentedA
 Though I'm fragile as December on your shoulder in the dawn?
        E MajorE
 And when the day has made me stronger, can you satisfy my hunger
                        A augmentedA
 When the night has come and I would race the moon across the sky?
      BB                 E MajorE
 Would you chase me through those open fields of summer?


        A/EA/E    B/E              E MajorE
 Then you are calling - call my heart awake from years of slumber
        A/EA/E      B/E              E MajorE
 And then I'm falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer.


       A augmentedA        BB                E MajorE
 But can you hold me though I am inclined to leave my home and wander?
       Asus2Asus2      BB              E MajorE
 Oh, can you keep me like a child head over heel in fields of summer?
 A augmentedA BB    E MajorE    A augmentedA BB    E MajorE
 Fi-elds of summer - fi-elds of summer
    Asus2Asus2     BB               E MajorE
 I am falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer.


     A augmentedA     BB     E MajorE
 Can you hold me - hold me - hold me?
     A augmentedA     BB     E MajorE
 Can you hold me - hold me - hold me?
    A augmentedA       BB               E MajorE
 I am falling like a child head over heel in fields of summer.
