[Intro]
| D | Em7 | D/F# | G |


[Verse]
D
 Summer cotton, summer corn
      Em7
Summer hash marks and a scoreboard
D/F#
 Summer, where they fought the civil
 war
             Gsus2
It's what my grandpa said
D
Picking up brown heads that we 
found, or
Em/D
 Picking up another first down
D/F#
Taking them girls to the edge of 
town
    Gsus2
And watching the sky turn red
     Gsus2 N.C.
On a blanket in a Chevy bed


[Chorus]
        D                     Em7
We grew up on 'em, stirred up dust 
on 'em
        D/F#
We were tough on 'em
         Gsus2
With our cleats and our retread 
tires
              D
We stayed out late on 'em
           Em7
We went to state on 'em
Continues after the ad
      D/F#                         
Every blade of that sacred ground's
                Gsus2
 got a thousand stories
          D     Em7
Fields of glory
          D/F#  G
Fields of glory


[Verse]
D
 Shooting cans off a tree stump
Em/D
 Cold beer buzzing with the June 
bugs
D/F#
Setting 'round talking like we knew 
what
        Gsus2
We were doing for the rest of our 
lives


[Chorus]
              D
We shine down lights on 'em
            Em7
Threw three stripes on 'em
             D/F#
Said our goodbyes on 'em
       Gsus2
Once September came around
          D
We had it made on 'em
           Em7
Part of us stayed on 'em
      D/F#                         
Every blade of that sacred ground's
                Gsus2
 got a thousand stories
          D     Em7
Fields of glory
          D/F#  G
Fields of glory


[Verse]
D
You drop by and see a barbed-wire 
fence
Em/D
I see boys turning into men
D/F#
I go back every now and then
    Gsus2 N.C.
And walk around and think of how


[Chorus]
        D                     Em7
We grew up on 'em, stirred up dust 
on 'em
        D/F#
We were tough on 'em
         Gsus2
With our cleats and our retread 
tires
              D
We stayed out late on 'em
           Em7
We went to state on 'em
      D/F#                         
Every blade of that sacred ground's
                Gsus2
 got a thousand stories
          D     Em7
Fields of glory
          D/F#  Gsus2
Fields of glory


[Other]
          D     Em7
Fields of glory
                  D/F#        G
They were our fields of glory
