belleau wood2 Garth Brooks
Oh the snow[D]fakes fell in s[D/F#]ilence
Over [Bm]Belleau W[A]ood that n[D]ight
For a [G]Christmas truce had been [D]declared
By [Em7]both sides of the [A7]figh[A7sus]t
As we l[D]ay there in our t[D/F#]renches
The s[G]ilence broke in [G]two
By a [G]German soldier [D]singing
A [A]song that we all[D] knew
Though I [D]did not know t[D/F#]he language
The s[Bm]ong was "S[A]ilent Night[D]"
Then I [G]heard my buddy [D]whisper,
"All is c[Em7]alm, and all is [A7sus]bright"[A7]
Then the f[D]ear and doubt su[D/F#]rrounded me
'Cause I'd [G]die if I was [G]wrong
But I s[G]tood up in my [D]trench
And I b[A]egan to sing [D]along
Then [A]across the frozen [A]battlefield
[G]Another's voice joined[D] in
Until [G]one by one each [D]man became
A s[Em7]inger of the h[A7sus]ymn[A7] [A7sus]
Then I [D]thought that I was [D/F#]dreaming
For [Bm]right there [A]in my [D]sight
[G]Stood the German [D]soldier
[Em7]'Neath the falling flakes of w[A7sus]hite[A7]
And [D]raised his hand and [D/F#]smiled at me
As [G]if he seemed to [G]say
Here's [G]hoping we both [D]live
To see us [A]find a better [D]way
Then the [A]devil's clock struck [A]midnight
And the s[G]kies lit up [D]again
And the [G]battlefield where [D]heaven stood
Was b[Em7]lown to hell ag[A7sus]ain[A] [A7sus]
But for j[D]ust one fleeti[D/F#]ng moment
The a[G]nswer seemed so c[G]lear
[G]Heaven's not b[D]eyond the clouds
It's[Em7] just beyond the [Bm]fear[A]
No [G]Heaven's not be[D]yond the clouds
Its for [Em7]us to fin[A]d it here
Finale tabbed out (not perfect, but close):
