D
[Verse 1]
D
1915 on Christmas Day
A
On the western front the guns all died away
G Bm
And lying in the mud on bags of sand
Em A D
We heard a German sing from no man's land
D
He had tenor voice so pure and true
A
The words were strange but every note we knew
G Bm
Soaring o'er the the living dead and damned
Em A D
The German sang of peace from no man's land
[Verse 2]
D
They left their trenches and we left ours
A
Beneath tin hats smiles bloomed like wild flowers
G Bm
With photos, cigarettes, and pots of wine
Em A D
We bult a soldier's truce on the front line
D
Their singer was a lad of 21
A
We begged another song before the dawn
G Bm
And sitting in the mud and blood and fear
Em A D
He sang again the song all longed to hear
[Chorus]
D
Silent night, no cannons roar
A
A king is born of peace for evermore
G Em
All's calm, all's bright
Bm
All brothers hand in hand
Em A D
In 19 and 15 in no man's land
[Verse 3]
D
And in the morning all the guns boomed in the rain
A
And we killed them and they killed us again
G Bm
At night they charged we fought them hand to hand
Em A D
And I killed the boy that sang in no man's land
[Chorus]
D
Silent night no cannons roar
A
A king is born of peace for evermore
G Em
All's calm, all's bright
