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