The news had come out in the First World War

The bloody Red Baron was flying once more
C
The Allied command ignored all of its men
D G
And called on Snoopy to do it again.
G D
Was the night before Christmas, 40 below
G
When Snoopy went up in search of his foe
C
He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought
D G
With ice on his wings Snoopy knew he was caught.

Christmas bells those Christmas bells
C D G
Ring out from the land
C D G Em
Asking peace of all the world
C D G
And good will to man
G D
The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights

He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight
C
Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know
D G
Or was it the bells from the village below.
C D G
Christmas bells those Christmas bells
C D G
Ringing through the land

Bringing peace to all the world
C D G
And good will to man

The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine
G
And forced him to land behind the enemy lines
C
Snoopy was certain that this was the end
D G
When the Baron cried out, "Merry Christmas, my friend"
G D
The Baron then offered a holiday toast

And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host
C
And then with a roar they were both on their way
D G
Each knowing they'd meet on some other day.
