Will The Circle Be Unbroken Lyrics & Chords

By A.P. Carter | Johnny Cash

(C)I was standing by the window

On one (F)cold and cloudy (C)day

When I saw the hearse come rolling

For to carry my (G)mother (C)away



Chorus

(C)Will the circle be unbroken

By and (F)by Lord, bye and (C)bye

There's a better home awaiting

In the sky Lord, (G)in the (C)sky



I said to the undertaker

Undertaker please drive slow

For this lady you are carrying

Lord I hate to see her go



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 



Will the circle be unbroken

Bye and bye Lord, bye and bye

There's a better home awaiting

In the sky Lord, in the sky



I went back home, the home was lonesome

Since my mother, she was gone

All my brothers and sisters crying

What a home so sad and alone



We sang songs of childhood

Hymns of faith that made us strong

Ones that mother maybelle taught us

Hear the angels sing along
