Intro: |D |G A| D|

CHORUS:
D G A
Bending blades, tall grass blowing in the breeze,
D
Shining in the sun.
D G A
Lonely days, I keep going to a place
D
We met when we were young.

Verse 1:
D G
All I saw was flowers growing.
A D
All I heard the three words that you spoke.
D G A
A blinded heart, never knowing that the dream
D
Would die when I awoke.

BRIDGE 2:
Bm D G D A D
In those days our lives were simple.
Bm D G D A
I was yours and you were mine.
Bm D G D A D G
But I was wrong to try and hold you tight
A
And tie you to my side.

CHORUS

In my heart I long for those days

Though your love has passed me by.

And though the hard times weep down on me still

I hold your dream up high.
