G

         G                         G7
I was standing by my window
         C                       G
On a cold and cloudy day
                                              Em
When I saw the hearse come rolling
             G           D7         G
For to carry my mother away.

              G              G7
Will the circle be unbroken?
            C                       G
By and by Lord, by and by
                                     Em
There's a better home awaiting
           G            D7       G
In the sky Lord, in the sky.

                   G                                 G7
Well, I went back home, home was lonely
             C                       G
For my mother she was gone
                                             Em
And all my family there was cryin'
              G             D7         G
For our home felt sad and alone.

             G                G7
Will the circle be unbroken?
            C                       G
By and by Lord, by and by
                                     Em
There's a better home awaiting
           G            D7       G
In the sky Lord, in the sky.

      G                 G7
Undertaker, undertaker
                   C                G
Won't you please drive slow
                                 Em
For that lady you are haulin'
            G         D7         G
Lord, I hate to see her go.

              G                G7
Will the circle be unbroken?
            C                       G
By and by Lord, by and by
                                     Em
There's a better home awaiting
           G           D7        G
In the sky Lord, in the sky
