Out in the Fields Lyrics

Music/Lyrics by Gary Moore
Original Version: Gary Moore 1985: Run For Cover

{GUITAR INTRO SOLO}
It doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right.
It makes no difference if you're black or if you're white.
All men are equal till the victory is won.
No colour or religion ever stopped the bullet from a gun.

Out in the fields, the fighting has begun.
Out on the streets, they're falling one by one.
Out from the skies, a thousand more will die each day.
Death is just a heartbeat away.

{GUITAR INTRO SOLO}

It doesn't matter if you're left or to the right.
Don't try to hide behind the cause for what you fight.
There'll be no prisoners taken when the day is done.
No flag or uniform ever stopped the bullet from a gun.
Out in the fields, the fighting has begun.
Out on the streets, they're falling one by one.
Out from the skies, a thousand more will die each day.
Death is just a heartbeat away.

{GUITAR INTRO SOLO}

There's no communication, no one to take the blame.
The cries of every nation have fallen on deaf ears again...

{GUITAR SOLO}
Out in the fields.
Out in the fields.
(They are falling one by one.)
Out in the fields.
(No flag has ever stopped the bullet from a gun.)
Death is just a heartbeat away.
Out in the fields, a heartbeat away.
Out in the fields. Death is just a heartbeat away.
Out in the fields, a heartbeat away.
Out in the fields.

In the fields, the fighting has begun.
Out on the streets, they're falling one by one.
Out from the skies, a thousand more will die each day.

OUT!
