[Verse 1]
'Twas the [G]night before Christmas
When [C]all through the [G]house
Not a [Em]creature was stirring
Not [D]even a mouse
No [G]stockings were hung
The [C]mantle was [G]bare
[Em]St. Nicholas looked [D]around
And [C]no one was [G]there

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, to[C]night there's a soldier
in a [G]land far away
While the [D]children listen
for the [G]bells on a sleigh
[C]We've never met 'em, names [G]not on our [C]list
But you'll [G]sleep well America,
[D]that's the soldier's [G]gift[C][G]

[Verse 2]
A [G]house cold and quiet
A [C]sad sight to [G]see
No [Em]tinsel, no presents
Not a [D]light on a tree
Just some [G]medals and badges
In a [C]frame on the [G]wall
That [Em]stand at at[D]tention
If [C]duty should [G]call

[Chorus 2]
Yeah, to[C]night there's a soldier
in a [G]land far away
While the [D]children listen
for the [G]bells on a sleigh
[C]We've never met 'em, names [G]not on our [C]list
But you'll [G]sleep well America,
[D]that's the soldier's

[Verse 3]
[G]Green and red paper
[C]Big bows and [G]ribbons
[Em]Outside the snow falls
And [D]Icicles glisten
[G]Joy To The World
From a [C]caroling [G]choir
[Em]Mistletoe [D]kisses
Throw a [C]log on the [G]fire

[Chorus 3]
'Cause to[C]night there's a soldier
in a [G]land far away
While the [D]children listen
for the [G]bells on a sleigh
[C]We've never met 'em, names [G]not on our [C]list
But you'll [G]sleep well America,
[D]that's the soldier's
