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
