I was standing by my window
F C
On a cold and cloudy day
C Am
When I saw the hearse come rolling
C G C
For to carry my mother away
[Chorus]
Em7 Am C
Will the circle be unbroken
F C
By and by Lord, by and by
Em Em7 Am
There's a better home awaiting
C G C
In the sky Lord, in the sky
[Verse 2]
C
Well, I went home, home was lonely
F C
For my mother she was gone
C Am
And all my family there was cryin'
C G C
For out home felt sad and alone
[Chorus]
Em7 Am C
Will the circle be unbroken
F C
By and by Lord, by and by
Em Em7 Am
There's a better home awaiting
C G C
In the sky Lord, in the sky
[Verse 3]
C
Undertaker, undertaker
F C
Won't you please drive real slow
C Am
For that lady you are haulin'
C G C
Lord, I hate to see her go
[Chorus]
Em7 Am C
Will the circle be unbroken
F C
By and by Lord, by and by
Em Em7 Am
There's a better home awaiting
C G C
In the sky Lord, in the sky
