[Verse]
D
The wind is creepin' across the mountains
G F D
The moon is nowhere in sight
G D
Gone is the voice I'm used to hearing
F G D
Oh, what a silent night
D
The telephone's been disconnected
G F D
But she wouldn't call me any- way
G D
But even if she did, I wouldn't answer
F G D
'Cause there's not one word left to say
[Chorus?
G D
She told me, she was disen- chanted
G A
She needed those big city lights
D
Well, I loved her and I told her, her wish was granted
F G D
Oh, what a silent night
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
D
I sit here, feelin' my heart breaking
G F D
I think I felt a teardrop fall
G D
I listen for the sound my heart is making
F G D
But it don't make no sound at all
D
And I wonder just how long I'll miss her
G F D
Will my hair be black or white
G D
God, I'd give my soul to kiss her
F G D
Oh, what a silent night
[Chorus]
G D
She told me, she was disen- chanted
G A
She needed those big city lights
D
Well, I loved her and I told her, her wish was granted
F G D
Oh, what a silent night
[Outro]
F G D F G D D F G C D
Oh, what a silent night
