Start with a D on the 5th fret for the opening
Oh the snowDfakes fell in sD/Filence
Over BmBelleau WAood that nDight
For a GChristmas truce had been Ddeclared
By Em7both sides of the A7fight
As we lDay there in our tD/Frenches
The sGilence broke in Gtwo
By a GGerman soldier Dsinging
A Asong that we allD knew
Though I Ddid not know tD/Fhe language
The sBmong was "SAilent NightD"
Then I Gheard my buddy Dwhisper,
"All is cEm7alm, and all is bright"A7
Then the fDear and doubt suD/Frrounded me
'Cause I'd Gdie if I was Gwrong
But I sGtood up in my Dtrench
And I bAegan to sing Dalong
Then Aacross the frozen Abattlefield
GAnother's voice joinedD in
Until Gone by one each Dman became
A sEm7inger of the hymn A7
Then I Dthought that I was D/Fdreaming
For Bmright there Ain my Dsight
GStood the German Dsoldier
Em7'Neath the falling flakes of white A7
And Draised his hand and D/Fsmiled at me
As Gif he seemed to Gsay
Here's Ghoping we both Dlive
To see us Afind a better Dway
Then the Adevil's clock struck Amidnight
And the sGkies lit up Dagain
And the Gbattlefield where Dheaven stood
Was bEm7lown to hell again A
But for jDust one fleetiD/Fng moment
The aGnswer seemed so cGlear
GHeaven's not bDeyond the clouds
It'sEm7 just beyond the Bmfear A
No GHeaven's not beDyond the clouds
Its for Em7us to finAd it here
