Backstory:
Stark Field was birthed in the heart of Texas by its founding members, brothers Carl and Roger Jenkins. Their love for music began at a young age, with Carl learning the guitar and Roger, the drums. As they grew older, they ventured into songwriting, merging their experiences of love, loss, and the raw, stark beauty of their rural upbringing into their music. The name ‘Stark Field’ is a nod to the endless, bare fields of their hometown, a symbol of their simple origins and the depth of their creative canvas. After years of performing at local bars and small-time gigs, their breakthrough came in 2005 with their debut album, “Beyond the Horizon,” that caught the attention of indie rock enthusiasts across the country.

Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[G] Under the [D] harvest [Em] moon, I [C] see your [G] face,
[D] Shadows of [Em] love, in a [C] tranquil [G] embrace.
[D] Walking the [Em] line, between [C] darkness and [G] dawn,
[D] Love is the [Em] field, where [C] true hearts are [G] born.
(Chorus)
[G] Harvest Moon, [D] shine your light [Em] so bright,
[C] Illuminate our [G] dreams, in the [D] cold, still [Em] night.
[G] Unveil the [D] secrets, hidden [Em] in our hearts,
[C] In the stark [G] fields of [D] love, under the [Em] Harvest [C] Moon’s [G] arc.
(Verse 2)
[G]Whispers of [D] wheat, in the [Em] midnight [C] breeze,
[G] Echoing [D] tales, of [Em] forgotten [C] seas.
[G] Your touch, a [D] promise, in the [Em] moonlit [C] night,
[G] We dance, we [D] dream, under the [Em] Harvest [C] Moon’s [G] light.
(Chorus)
[G] Harvest Moon, [D] shine your light [Em] so bright,
[C] Illuminate our [G] dreams, in the [D] cold, still [Em] night.
[G] Unveil the [D] secrets, hidden [Em] in our hearts,
[C] In the stark [G] fields of [D] love, under the [Em] Harvest [C] Moon’s [G] arc.
