G Em C D
Once in a town in the Blackforest a little white toy shop stood,
G Em C D
And a little tin soldier with only one leg lived in a castle of wood.
C D C D
And across the room on another shelve stood a tiny glass case,
G Em C D
And a tiny ballerina lived in there - all in a dress of lace.
C D C D
And from where the little tin soldier stood they could see each other so clear,
G Em C D
And the little tin soldier watched over her with a love so deep and dear.
 
Gm Bm Gm Bm
Then one day, sadness came. The tiny ballerina was sold.
Gm Bm Am
The little tin soldier was thrown away, and into the gutter he rolled.
 
Am Em Am Em
The water carried him to the sea and many far-off lands;
Am Em Am Em
He made many children happy as he passed through their tiny hands
G Em G Em
And then one day they met again in a town in the land of Eire.
G Em C Am D
And as the clocks on the wall struck the midnight hour they jumped into the fire.
G Em G Em
And in that fire they shall stay, Lord, forever and a day.
G Em C D intro
'Cause that fire, oh Lord, is the fire of love, just like the peace of thy.
