Rebel Waltz

 G          C     	  B           Em 
I slept as I dreamed of a time long a-go. 
         B       Em     C          Am 
I saw an army of rebels dancing on air. 
  G            C              B 
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           B         Em 
I danced with a girl to the tune of a waltz 
         B             Em        C          Am 
That was written to be danced on the battle-field 

G		 C             B 
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             B           Em 
As we danced came the news that the war was not won 
     B           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          B 
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          B             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         B 
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.
