Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Traditional

  Will the (G)circle be unbroken
  By and (C)by, Lord, by and (G)by
  There's a better home a-(Em)wait (G)ing
  In the sky, Lord, (D)in the (G)sky

I was standing by the window
On a cold and cloudy day
When I saw that hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away

Lord, I told the undertaker:
Undertaker, please drive slow
For the body you are hauling
Lord I hate to see her go

For I followed close behind her
Tried to cheer up and be brave
But I couldn't hide my sorrows
When they laid her in the grave

Went back home, Lord, my home was lonesome
Missed my mother, she was gone
All my brothers and sitsers crying
What a home, so sad and lone
