G 
C 
G 
I saw the vision of armies;
C 
D 
And I saw, as in noiseless dreams,
G 
hundreds of battle- flags,
C 
G 
Borne through the smoke of the battles
D 
and pierced with missiles, I saw them,
G 
C 
C# 
And carried, hither and yon through the smoke,
G 
Em 
and torn and bloody
C 
And at last but a few shreds of 'the flags left on the staffs,
G 
(and all in silence,)
Em 
And the staffs all splintered
G 
D 
and broken.
C 
I saw battle- corpses, myriads of them,

of young men, I saw them
Dm 
D 
I saw the debris and
Dm 
C# 
debris of all dead soldiers,
D 
C 
But I saw they were not as was
D 
thought
Dm 
D 
C 
They themselves were fully at rest, they suffered not
