F                           Dm         Am
There was a time, I was so lonely, oh hey yeah
F                             Dm         Am
Remember the time, it was on Friday, oh hey yeah
F                                Dm         Am
You made me feel fine, we did it my way, oh hey yeah
F                            Dm        Am
I sat on your knees, every Friday, oh hey yeah

Chorus:
 F            A#               F
We walked in fields of golden hay.
           A#
I still recall you.
 F            A#               F
We walked in fields of golden hay.
                 A#
I see you in the summer.

F Dm Am
Joe.
Joe.

I sat on your chair by the fire. (away)
Transfixed in a stare taking me higher (away)
Precious years to remember (away)
Childhood fears I surrender (away)

Chorus

Joe,
Joe
