Tom: A
A A7
I was standing by my window
D A
On one cold and cloudy day
A A F#m
When I saw that hearse come rolling
A E A
For to carry my mother away
Refrão -------------
A A7
Will the circle be unbroken
D A
By and by, Lord, by and by
A F#m
There's a better home a-waiting
A E A
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
--------------------
I said to that undertaker
undertaker please drive slow
for this lady you are carrying
Lord, I hate to see here go
Chorus
Banjo/Guitar Solo
Oh, I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in the grave
Chorus
I went back home, my home was lonesome
missed my mother, she was gone
all of my brothers, sisters crying
what a home so sad and lone
Chorus
Fiddle/Dobro Solo
We sang the songs of childhood
Hymns of faith that made us strong
Ones that Mother Maybelle taught us
Hear the angels sing along
Chorus
Chorus (end on D over sky on this one)
