Styx – Fields Of The Brave (Guitar)

Em        E          G
Sometimes I close my eyes

    C           G       C  G
And picture the plains

      Em      E            G        C       D
I see Buffalo Bill and the Iroquois riding again

     C              Bm    A
Open skies, fertile ground

Em       E         D               C#m
This was heaven on earth that they found

     G   D             C
They got what they gave

         G   D           C
By their God they were saved

          G       D     C
They were humble, not depraved

C
These streets we're afraid of

                            G    D  C
Once were the fields of the brave

    B             Em
The fields of the brave

Em      E         G
Where a Chevrolet rusts

     C          G        C  G
By a closed shopping mall

Em      E               G
Can you see through the dust

          C                D
Where the brave ones stood tall

       C               Bm   A
Buried deep where they fell

Em        B         G          A
They live on in the stories we tell

   G   D              C
We got what they gave

         G   D         C
By their God we were saved

      G        D    C
And I say this as I pray

C
I can't help but dream of

                              G     D  E
Days these were fields of the brave

       B             Em
In the fields of the brave

      Am7
After all this time

        G              Em
And the struggles in between

         Am7
We stand next in line

         G             C              D
With the chance we can build on their dreams

       G             C
In the fields of the brave

G             C
Fields of the brave

G
We got what they gave

       D             C
In the fields of the brave

          G  D       C
Let their spirits be saved

      G         D        C
And I pray this on their graves

C
There'll be a return of

                              G    D  C
Days these were fields of the brave

    B         Em
The fields of the brave
