- My name is Frances Tolliver, I come from Liver-pool5 * 4 1Two years ago the war was waiting for me after school
- 1 6m 4 2mTo Belgium and to Flanders, to Germany, to here5 * 1 *
- I fought for King and country I love dear5 * 4 1'Twas Christmas in the trenches, where the frost so bitter hung
- 1 6m 4 5The frozen fields of France were still, no Christmas song was sung1 6m 4 2m
- Our families back in England were toasting us that day5 * 1 *Their brave and glorious lads so far a-way
- 1 6m 4 2m
- I was lying with my messmate, on the cold and rocky ground5 * 4 1When a-cross the lines of battle came a most peculiar sound
- 1 6m 4 2mSays I, now listen up me boys, each soldier strained to hear5 * 1 *
- As one young German voice sang out so clear5 * 4 1He's singing bloody well you know, my partner says to me
- 1 6m 4 5Soon one by one each German voice, joined in in har-mo-ny1 6m 4 2m
- The cannons rested silent, the gas clouds rolled no more5 * 1 *As Christmas brought us respite from the war
- 1 6m 4 2m
- As soon as they were finished, and a reverent pause was spent5 * 4 1God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen, struck up some lads from Kent
- 1 6m 4 2mThe next they sang was "Stille Nacht", 'tis "Silent Night" says I5 * 1 *
- And in two tongues, one song filled up that sky (SILENT NIGHT)5 * 4 1There's someone comin' t'wards us, the frontline sentry cried
- 1 6m 4 5All sights were fixed on one lone figure trudging from their side1 6m 4 2m
- His truce flag like a Christmas star shone on that plain so bright5 * 1 *As he bravely strode un-armed into the night
- CHRISTMAS IN THE TRENCHES (page 2)
- 1 6m 4 2mThen one by one, on either side, walked into No Man's Land5 * 4 1
- With neither gun or bayonet, we met there hand to hand1 6m 4 2mWe shared some secret brandy and wished each other well
- 5 * 1 *And in a flare-lit soccer game, we gave 'em hell5 * 4 1
- We traded chocolates, cigarettes and photographs from home1 6m 4 5These sons and fathers far away from families of their own
- 1 6m 4 2mYoung Sanders played his squeezebox and they had a vi-o-lin5 * 1 *
- This curious and un-likely band of men
- 1 6m 4 2mSoon daylight stole u-pon us, and France was France once more5 * 4 1
- With sad farewells we each began to settle back to war1 6m 4 2mBut the question haunted every heart that lived that wondrous night
- 5 * 1 *Whose family have I fixed within my sights5 * 4 1
- 'Twas Christmas in the trenches where the frost so bitter hung1 6m 4 5The frozen fields of France were warmed as Christmas songs were sung
- 1 6m 4 2mFor the walls they kept be-tween us to ex-act the work of war5 * 1 *
- Had been crumbled and are gone for ever-more
- 1 6m 4 2mOh my name is Frances Tolliver, in Liverpool I dwell5 * 4 1
- Each Christmas come since World War One, I've learned it's lessons well1 6m 4 2mThat the ones who call the shots, won't be a-mong the dead and lame
