This is the riff that appears half way through 
 
You have to listen for the changes in time - rhythm varies on each 
repeat, but overall very easy riff to play

Let's wander slowly through the fields  
Slowly, slowly through the fields 
I touch the leaves that touch the sky 
Just you and I, through the fields of joy 
 
All trouble slowly fades away 
Slowly slowly fades away 
I hold your hand inside my hand 
Across the land - through fields of joy 
The sound of music that we hear 
The blend of colours in the air 
All cities, mountains disappear from view 
All truth and beauty near to me and you 
With you through the fields 
With you through the fields 
With you through the fields 
The fields of Joy 
 
Let's wander slowly through the fields  
Slowly, slowly through the fields 
I know our love will never die 
Just you and I 
Through fields of Joy 
Through fields of Joy

Lenny Kravitz - Fields of Joy 
       (according to Ralf , 
        SOLO by Andreas ) 
 
Thanx to Andreas   whose frame I am using 
- unfortunately my transcription of the TABs and chords is different, so 
this is my version of how I perceive the really excellent song. (Ralf): 
 
Special chords for the middle part: 
          E A D G B E 
    799877     you should stress the bass strings (E-d) 
D/A       557775   |  and preferably omit the discant ones 
E/G#      476454   |  which allows you to cope with the fingering 
    355433   /  slightly easier, too 
 
All words following are originally from Andreas - I only changed  
the chords and TABS (except SOLO): 
 
"This is a favorite of mine. Maybe the solo isn't perfect, please mail 
me if you find anything you think is wrong. 
 
Repeat through verses 1, 2 and 4:

   =              = 
Let's wander slowly through the fields 
Slowly, slowly through the fields 
I touch the leaves that touch the sky 
Just you and I through the fields of joy 
 
All trouble slowly fades away 
Slowly, slowly fades away 
I hold your hand inside my hand 
Across the land through the fields of joy 
 
The sound of music that we hear 
The blend of colors in the air 
All cities, mountains disappear from view 
All truth and beauty near to me and you 
 
       D/A        E/G#    (A) 
With you     through the fields 
With you     through the fields 
With you     through the fields,  the fields of joy 
 
SOLO (by Slash) {TABs at bottom}

Lets wander slowly     through      the fields 
     Slowly,           slowly through the fields 
  I know our love will ne-   ver        die 
Just you and I            through the fields of joy 
Through fie-e-e-e-e-elds o-o-o-o-of joooooooooooy

Notations: 
----5----  play fret five 
----5~---  play fret five with vibrato 
---75---  play fret seven, slide down to fret five 
---8(9)--  play fret eight, bend the string (at fret eight) to reach 
             the pitch of fret nine 
---(9)8--  play fret eight already bent to the pitch of fret nine, 
             unbending until it reaches the normal pitch of fret eight 
----h7---  hammer-on to fret seven 
----p5---  pull-off to fret five 
---/12---  slide up to fret 12 (the starting fret of the slide is 
             undefined, judge by ear) 
 
The | doesn't really mean anything, I just put them where they made 
sense to me. 
 
By the way, this is my first posting here, should I do anything special 
to see too that this ends up in Nevada, or does someone else take care 
of that?" (Andreas)

HAVE FUN! As for the last paragraph, I could say/ask the same... Ralf.
