[00:53.30]In July 1863
[00:57.14]A nation torn in tragedy
[01:00.75]A trick of fate, two great armies merge
[01:06.66]Gods of war at Gettysburg
[01:10.02]Devastation lies ahead
[01:13.88]Fifty thousand bodies litter the land
[01:17.65]Hell rages three full days
[01:21.01]The reaper sows, there's the devil to pay
[01:31.75]The pressure's on and the rebs attack
[01:35.34]The yanks must hold, they can't fall back
[01:39.06]Just two brigades, two thousand strong
[01:42.86]Against twenty thousand they can't hold long
[01:46.49]General Reynolds makes his way
[01:50.29]Expect no mercy from the iron brigade
[01:54.08]Until he shows they're on their own
[01:57.73]But Buford's men have a will of stone
[02:01.55]Bayonets gleam in the morning sun
[02:05.32]Smoke and fire belching from their guns
[02:09.13]Another volley and again they strike
[02:12.79]Thousands more coming down the Chambersburg Pike
[02:16.89]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation
[02:22.37](The reaper has his way)
[02:24.08]Men will kill and blood will spill to preserve the nation
[02:29.80](There's the devil to pay)
[02:31.25]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation
[02:36.72](The reaper has his way)
[02:38.44]Men will kill and blood will spill to preserve the nation
[02:44.09](There's the devil to pay)
[02:45.39]South of town down the Emmitsburg road
[02:49.19]The first corps are starting to show
[02:52.89]For Buford's men, they're here just in time
[02:56.70]The desperate need to strengthen the line
[03:00.41]Bodies dropping the blue and the gray
[03:04.22]Muskets fire and the cannon blaze
[03:07.96]The union fights defending the town
[03:11.66]But they're outnumbered and losing ground
[03:15.42]From the north and the west more rebels arrive
[03:19.12]Thousands more and the fight multiplies
[03:22.88]McPherson's ridge and the black hats strike
[03:26.54]A rebel sharpshooter takes Reynolds life
[03:30.56]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation

[03:57.67](There's the devil to pay)
[03:58.98]Attack, attack, general Lee gives command
[04:02.83]They're overwhelmed, the situation demands
[04:06.50]The federals retreat and rush out of town
[04:10.28]But they have fortified and saved the high ground
[04:14.07]The day ends, victory for the south
[04:17.81]Lee's as convinced as God's will is profound
[04:21.57]They are invincible and their cause is just
[04:25.32]But long street is cautious and lacking in trust
[04:29.09]Across the way the union digs in
[04:32.86]The round tops, cemetery ridge and out to Culps Hill
[04:36.70]Their lines are strong, no denying they'll stay
[04:40.40]When the confederates strike there'll be the devil to pay
[04:44.49]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation
[04:49.96](The reaper has his way)
[04:51.68]Men will kill and blood will spill to preserve the nation
