In (E)his arms she fell as her hair came down,

a mong the fields of gold.

Will you (F#m)stay with me,

And you can tell the (F#m7)sun in his jeal (D)ous sky

when we (Bm7)walked in fields of gold.

Fields Of Gold — Falling Notes Piano Tutorial

6 people have learned this song

Watch "Fields Of Gold" by Eva Cassidy in falling notes style — like Synthesia. Color-coded notes fall onto the keyboard in real time. Practice left hand, right hand, or both. Key of A, 100 BPM.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a beautiful workout for smooth chord transitions — you're juggling twelve chords in the key of A, and many of them are suspended voicings like Asus4, Dsus2, and Esus4 that differ from their parent chord by just one note.

Train your fingers to hold the common tones and move only what needs to move; that's the secret to making those shifts feel effortless rather than clunky.

Your left hand has a walking bass line at 100 BPM, so start hands-separate and slow it to around 70 until the bass feels automatic — you need that hand on autopilot before you layer the right hand on top.

Watch the Bm7 to F#m7 transition especially; loop those two bars until the reach feels natural.

Pedal lightly on each chord change to keep the ballad warmth without blurring the bass movement.

If you can master the sus-chord resolutions here, you'll carry that skill into dozens of other pop ballads — it's one of the most transferable things this song teaches.
