D                              D/F#
Oh the snowfakes fell in scilence
    Bm          A/C#       D
Over Belleau Wood that night
      G                        D
For a Christmas truce had been declared
 A7sus                A7
By both sides of the fight
      D                      D/F#
As we lay there in our trenches
   G  
The silence broke in two
                     D
By a German soldier singing
  A7sus                D  A7sus
A song that we all knew

2
Though I did not know the language
The song was "Silent Night"
Then I heard my buddy whisper,
"All is calm, and all is bright"
Then the fear and doubt surrounded me
'Cause I'd die if I was wrong
But I stood up in my trench
And I began to sing along

 Dsus2  A7   
    Then across the frozen battlefield
     G                   D
Another's voice joined in
      G                D/F#
Until one by one each man became 
     Em7           Asus   A
A singer of the hymn

2
Then I thought that I was dreaming
For right there in my sight
Stood the German soldier
'Neath the falling flakes of white
And raised his hand and smiled at me
As if he seemed to say
Here's hoping we both live
To see us find a better way

3
Then the devil's clock struck midnight 
And the skies lit up again
And the battlefield where heaven stood
Was blown to  hell again

2
But for just one fleeting moment
The answer seemed so clear
Heaven's not beyond the clouds
It's just beyond the fear
No Heaven's not beyond the clouds
It's for us to find it here
