Chords for Celtic Thunder - 'Christmas 1915'

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ 1915 on Christmas Day
On the Western Front the guns all [A] died away
And [G] lying in the modern bags [Bm] of sand
_ [Em] We heard a German [A] sing from no [D] man's land
He had a tenor voice so pure and true
_ The words were strange but every note [A] we knew
_ _ [G] Sorry nor the living dead [Bm] and damned
A [Em] German sang [A] of peace from no [D] man's land
They _ _ _ left their trenches and we left ours
Beneath thin hearts a smile bloomed like [A] _ _ wildflowers
[G] With photos, cigarettes and pots [Bm] of wine
[Em] We built a [A] soldier's truce on the [D] front line
Their singer was a lad of twenty-one _
We begged another song before [A] the door
[G] I'm sitting in the mud and blood [Bm] and fear
[Em] He sang again [A] this song all [D] long to hear _ _
_ Silent night, no cannons roar
Our king is born of peace [A] _ forevermore
[G] All's calm, _ [Em] all's bright, all brothers stand [Bm] in hand
[Em] In [A] 1915 in no [D] man's land
_ _ _ And in the morning all the guns boomed in the rain _
And we killed them and they killed [A] us again _ _
[G] At night they charged, we fought them [Bm] hand to hand
[Em] And I killed the boy [A] that [D] sang in no man's land _ _
_ Silent night, no cannons roar
Our king is born of peace [A] _ forevermore
[G] All's calm, _ [Em] all's bright, all brothers stand [Bm] in hand
[Em] And that young soldier [A] sings
[Em] And the song of peace [A] still rings
[Em] For the captains and all [A] the kings
In [Em] no [A] _ _ [D] man's _ land
_ _ Sleep [A] in heavenly [D] _ peace _ _ _ _ _
