Wonder if he [Bb] makes an entry for [C] each darling mother's [F] love.
[Bb] Like I saw [F] this morning, in her through the station [C] door.
[F] She was crying, [Bb] softly crying,
[C] teardrops falling in [F] the snow.
Why she came up to [Bb] the window,
[C] passing me a letter [F] through.
She was waiting [Bb] for a casket,
[C] one draped in red, white [F] and blue.
[Bb] Then she said, I'll wait [F] outside sir, I know your [C] train will blow.
[F] I could see her through [Bb] the window,
[C] teardrops falling in [F] the snow.
Then the whistle [Bb] of the engine,
[C] broke the silence in [F] the air.
As the train was [Bb] slowly stopping,
[C] on her lips I [F] saw a prayer.
On [Bb] the box there was [F] a number, and the name [C] inscribed below.
[F] War had claimed this [Bb] mother's darling,
[C] war for her has [F] taken toll.
[Bb] But I'm sure they'll lead [F] up yonder, where God's children [C] always go.
[F] But I always will [Bb] remember,
[C] teardrops falling in the [F] snow.
