Bm Em C Am I saw an army of rebels dancing on air. G C Bm I dreamed as I slept. I could see the camp fires, Em Bm Em Bm A song of the battle that was born in the flames, Em Bm G And the rebels were waltzing on air G C Bm Em I danced with a girl to the tune of a waltz Bm Em C Am That was written to be danced on the battle-field G C Bm I danced to the song of a voice of a girl Em Bm Em Bm A voice that called, 'Stand till we fall. Em Bm G We stand till all the boys fall.' G C Bm Em As we danced came the news that the war was not won Bm Em C Am Five armies were coming with carriage and gun. G C B Through the heart of the camp swept the news from the front. Em Bm Em Bm A cloud crossed the moon. A child cried for food. Em Bm G We knew the war could not be won. G C Bm Em So we danced with a rifle to the rhythm of the gun. Bm Em C Am In a glade, through the trees, I saw my only one. G C Bm Then the earth seemed to rise, hell hot as the sun. Em Bm Em Bm The soldiers were dying. There was a tune to the sighing. Em Bm G The song was an old rebel one. G C Bm Em As the smoke of our hopes rose high from the field, B Em C Am My eyes played tricks through the moon and the trees. G C Bm I slept as I dreamed I saw the army rise. Em Bm Em Bm A voice began to call, Stand till you fall Em Bm G The tune was an old rebel one.
