^DOh, the snowflakes fell in ^D/F#silence Over ^BmBelleau ^AWood that ^Dnight For a ^GChristmas truce had ^Dbeen declared By ^Aboth side of the fight As we ^Dlay there in our ^D/F#trenches The ^Gsilence broke in two By a German soldier ^Dsinging A ^Asong that we all ^Dknew ^A

Though I ^Ddid not know the ^D/F#language The ^Bmsong was &^Aquot;Si^Dlent Night" Then I ^Gheard my buddy ^Dwhisper, "All i^As calm and all is bright" Then the ^Dfear and doubt su^D/F#rrounded me 'Cause I'd ^Gdie if I was wrong But I stood up in my ^Dtrench And I bega^An to sing alo^Dng

Then a^Across the frozen battlefield Anot^Gher's voice joined ^Din Until ^Gone by one each ^D/F#man became A ^Emsinger of the ^Ahymn

Then I ^Dthought that I was ^D/F#dreaming For ^Bmright there ^Ain my ^Dsight ^GStood the German ^Dsoldier 'Neath the ^Afalling flakes of white And he ^Draised his hand and ^D/F#smiled at me A^Gs if he seemed to say Here's hoping we both ^Dlive To see us ^Afind a better ^Dway

Then the ^Adevil's clock struck midnight And the ^Gskies lit up agai^Dn And the ^Gbattlefield where ^D/F#heaven stood Was ^Emblown to hell a^Again

But for j^Dust one fleeting ^D/F#moment The ^Ganswer seemed so clear Heaven's not beyo^Dnd the clouds It's j^Aust beyond the ^Bmfear ^A No, ^Gheaven's not beyo^Dnd the clouds It's for ^Aus to find it ^Dhere
