Once in a town [Em] in the black forest, a [G] little white tie [Em] shop stood, [G] and a little tin soldier
[D] [Em] with only one leg [C] lived in a castle [D] of wood.
[C] And across the room [D] on another shelf [C] stood a little [D] glass cave, [G] and a tiny [Em] ballerina
lived in there, [C] all in a dress [D] of lea.
[C] And from where the little tin [D] soldier stood, [C] they could see each other [D] so clear.
[G] And the little tin [Em] soldier watched over her [C] with a love that [D] was so dear.
[Gm]
Then one [F#] day, [B] sadness came, [Gm] the tiny ballerina [Bm] was so.
[Gm] The little tin soldier was thrown [Bm] away, and into the gutter [Am] he rode.
