GG7 I was standing by my window
CG On a cold and cloudy day
Em When I saw that hearse come roll ing,
CDG Lord, to carry my mother a way
GG7 Will the circle be unbroken
CG By and by, Lord, by and by
Em There's a better home await ing
CDG In the sky - Lord, in the sky
GG7 And I followed close behind her ,
CG Tryin' to hold up and be brave
Em But, I could not hide my sorr ow,
CDG When they laid her in that grave
GG7 Will the circle be unbroken
CG By and by, Lord, by and by
Em There's a better home await ing
CDG In the sky - Lord, in the sky
GG7 I went back home - my home was lonesome
CG For my mother she was gone
Em Saw my brothers and sisters cry ing
CDGG7 What a home so sad and a lone
GG7 Will the circle be unbroken
CG By and by, Lord, by and by
Em There's a better home await ing
CDG In the sky - Lord, in the sky
GG7 Will the circle be unbroken
CG By and by, Lord, by and by
Em There's a better home await ing
CDG In the sky - Lord, in the sky
Em There's a better home await ing
