            A
After the smoke clears,
           D
And it's down to you and I
          A
When the sun appears
             D
And there's nothing left but goodbyes
                     A
We'll just turn and walk away,
              D
How could we let it end like this ?
               A
Just turn and walk away,
           D
Should we seal it with a kiss ?

Bm7                        A
It's too late, now you're out and on the run
Bm7                        E
It's too late, held up in love without a gun

Chorus:
        A                     D
Silent night, we hold up our candle light
        A                D
Silent night, the night our love died
             A              G
No words to say, now we're both too tired to fight
              Bm7                 E
Just hold me close and don't let go

It was all so simple when you were
To be queen and I'd be your king
I guess those dreams got lost cause
Baby you're still you and I'm still me
Now letting go,
It's always the hardest part to fight
When we both know,
We're just two more victims of the night

It's too late, too late to wonder why
Much too late, to save a love that's died.

Chorus

              Bm7              E
Just hold me close, don't let go

After the smoke cleared,
It was down to you and I
When the sun appeared,
There was nothing left but goodbyes

        A    D
Silent night
Silent night
Silent night
Silent night
Silent night
Silent night
