Today, I'm excited to share with you my tutorial on Sting's beautiful song "Fields of Gold". In this lesson, I'll guide you through the fingerstyle technique I use to play this classic, which I actually got to perform with Sting himself at a benefit concert - a story I touch on briefly in the video.

We'll start with the basic chord progression in the key of D, focusing on a pinch-strum pattern that really captures the essence of the song. I'll show you how to use your thumb, first, and second fingers to create that signature sound, emphasizing the importance of using the skin of your fingers for a softer touch.

Throughout the tutorial, I'll break down the verse structure, chorus, and bridge, demonstrating how to navigate the chord changes smoothly. We'll also explore some variations and embellishments you can add to make the song your own, including a sus version of the B minor chord and some dramatic ending options.

I'll share some personal insights from my experience playing this song with Sting and the incredible musicians at his rainforest benefit show. To wrap up, I'll demonstrate how you can use this chord progression as a basis for soloing and improvisation.

Whether you're a beginner looking to expand your fingerstyle skills or an experienced player wanting to add this timeless song to your repertoire, this lesson has something for everyone. So grab your guitar, and let's dive into the golden fields of this Sting masterpiece!
