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