Will The Circle Be Unbroken

           A             A7       
1. I was standing by my window on 
    D               A
one cold and cloudy day,
    when I saw the hearse come 
A E   F#m         A        E       A
rollin' for to carry my mother away.

          A          A7            
Will the circle be unbroken? By and
D               A
 by Lord, by and by.
                      A  E F#m   
There's a better home a-waitin', 
        A         E      A
in the sky Lord, in the sky.

       D                    A
"Undertaker, please drive slow,

                          A E F#m
    for this lady you are 
             A       E      A
carrying, Lord, I hate to see her 
go."

3. Well, I followed close behind 
               D               A
her, tried to hold up and be brave,
                          A E F#m
  but I could not hide my sorrow 
            A        E      A
when they laid her in the grave.
           A                    
4. I went back home, my home was 
A7
lonesome,
               D             A
    missed my mother she was gone.
    All my brothers and sisters 
A E F#m         A       E       A
crying in our home so sad and lone.
       A                 A7       
5. We sang the songs of childhood,
        D                    A
 hymns of faith that made us strong,
                              A E 
    ones that our mother had 
F#m             A      E    A
taught us, hear the angels sing 
along.
           A                 A7   
6. One by one the seats were 
         D              A
empty, one by one they went away,
                            A E 
    now my family, they are 
F#m              A    E  
parted, will they meet again 
     A
someday?
