     Em                          D
As I walk through the woods on a cold winters eve,
       G                            B
I hear voices far away, it seems so hard to believe,
       Em                               D
That I hear these conversations with my very own ears,
           G                         B
Because Im standing all alone, not another soul is near,

  Em                                D
I thought I heard a young boy say "daddy what do we do,
           G                                     B
with these brand new coats of grey, that they've given me and you",
         Em                           D
He said "boy that coat represents our great southern land,
   G                           B
so wear it with pride oneday I know you'll understand",

  Em                            D
I thought I heard a woman say, "husband I love you,
        G                                B
I'll be waiting right here to greet you, when the war is through",
  Em                                 D
I heard the man reply, "my dear dont worry I'll be fine,
  G                               B
I promise I'll be home its just a matter of time",


Chorus:
         G                         D
Southern wind blow on, through our unforgotten land,
       A                          C
Here today and yesteryear are reunited once again,
         G                        D
Here the cry of Confederates lost many years ago,
        A                            C
Cannons thunder and a lonesesome locomotive whistle blows,

           G                      D            
Share your pride inside with your fellow rebel souls,
           A                                 C
Hear their stories from beyond the grave, so many left untold,
     G                       D
Keep dixieland alive in your heart and in your mind,
         A                                C              G F#m Em
Southern wind blows once again and will until the end of time

  Em                           D
A heard a fire crackling, far away from where I stood,
           G                              B
I heard so many southern strangers form a perfect brotherhood,
       Em                            D
I hear horses rumble, carrying their soldiers off to fight,
         G                       B
Gunshots pierce the silence of a cold and quiet night,

       Em                         D
I hear yelling fade away as a man draws his final breath,
         G                       B
With his rifle and his honor, he falls down to his death,
       Em                               D
I hear hell on earth, and battle rage beneath dark eastern skies,
         G                         B
Brothers telling one another their ultimate goodbyes,

  Em                          D
I heard a young boy cry as he fell onto his knees,
         G                           B
He said "Jesus let my father rest in peace I beg you please",
  Em                             D
I heard this young boy cry as he took his fathers hand,
       G                             B
"Daddy now I understand"- and then a boy became a man,

  Em                        D
I heard a woman open up her front door all alone,
      G                                     B
She recieves news that her husband will not be returning home,
  Em                           D
I heard a woman break down and pray to God and scream,
       G                               B
What I feel it is so real, it's in the air, its not a dream,
