{t:Will the Circle Be Unbroken}
{st:Ada Habershon & Charles Gabriel}
I was [C]standing by my [C7]window,
On a [F]cold and cloudy [C]day.
When I [C]saw that hearse come rolling,
For to [C]carry my [G7]mother [C]away.
{soc}
Will the [C]circle be un-[C7]broken,
By and [F]by, Lord, by and [C]by?
There's a [C]better home a-waiting,
In the [C]sky, Lord, [G7]in the [C]sky.
{eoc}
Lord, I [C]told that under-[C7]taker,
"Under-[F]taker, please drive [C]slow.
For the [C]body you are hauling,
Lord, I [C]hate to [G7]see her [C]go."
{soc}
Will the [C]circle be un-[C7]broken,
By and [F]by, Lord, by and [C]by?
There's a [C]better home a-waiting,
In the [C]sky, Lord, [G7]in the [C]sky.
{eoc}
Lord, I [C]followed close be-[C7]hind her,
Tried to [F]hold up and be [C]brave.
But I [C]could not hide my sorrow,
When they [C]laid her [G7]in the [C]grave.

Will the [C]circle be un-[C7]broken,
By and [F]by, Lord, by and [C]by?
There's a [C]better home a-waiting,
In the [C]sky, Lord, [G7]in the [C]sky.
{eoc}
Went back [C]home, Lord, my home was [C7]lonesome,
Since my [F]mother, she was [C]gone.
All my [C]brothers, sisters cryin',
What a [C]home so [G7]sad and [C]lone.
