Verse
F# C#
A# mist halos the meadow
F# C# G#
And a soft wind breathes a whisper through the trees
F# C#
As I lean against a hickory
F# C# G#
I close my eyes and I can almost see
A#m G#
The ghostly forms of blue and gray
C# F#
And I can almost hear the cannons blast
D#m G# C#
Standin' in the presence of the past
F# C#
The first few waves came cheerin'
F# C# G#
Fear and hatered runnin' through their blood
F# C#
When the day was finally over
F# C# G#
Those left were wadin' through a crimson flood
A#m G#
To think I could be right here
C# F#
In the spot where some young soldier breathed his last
D#m G# C#
Standin' in the presence of the past
F# C#
Brother fightin; brother
F# C#
Father fightin' son
F# C#
By the time the sun was settin'
A#m C#
Looked like the South had won
F# C#
Now my mouth's as dry as cotton
F# A#m
And my heart is beatin' fast
D#m G# C#
Standin' in the presence of the past
C# F# C#
Sunrise caught the rebels sleepin'
F# C# G#
And they woke to hear a Yankee bugle blow
F# C#
Bullets flew like angry hornets
F# C# G#
Till the peach tree blossoms drifted down like snow
A#m G#
It must have been like hell on earth
C# F#
What happened here is more than we can grasp
D#m G# C#
Standin' in the presence of the past
F# C#
Brother fightin' brother
F# C#
Father fightin' son
F# C#
By the time the smoke had lifted
A#m C#
They knew the North had won
F# C#
Lord my soul feels empty
F# A#m
As my tears fall on this grass
D#m G# C#
Standin' in the presence of the past
F# C#
Brother killin' brother
F# C#
Father slayin' son
F# C#
From the looks of this old graveyard
A#m C#
Hell nobody really won
F# C#
Somethins' changed inside me
F# A#m
It sure can happen fast
D#m G# C#
Standin' in the presence of the past
F# C#
A# mist halos the meadow
F# C# G#
And a soft wind breathes a whisper through the trees
