Johnny Cash Will The Circle Be Unbroken

Tom: A A A7 D A 1. I was standing by my window on one cold and cloudy day, A E Gbm A E A when I saw the hearse come rollin' for to carry my mother away. A A7 D A Will the circle be unbroken? By and by Lord, by and by. A A7 D A 2. I said to the undertaker, "Undertaker, please drive slow, A E Gbm A E A for this lady you are carrying, Lord, I hate to see her go." A A7 D A 3. Well, I followed close behind her, tried to hold up and be brave, A E Gbm A E A but I could not hide my sorrow when they laid her in the grave. A A7 4. I went back home, my home was lonesome, D A missed my mother she was gone. A E Gbm A E A All my brothers and sisters crying in our home so sad and lone. A A7 D A 5. We sang the songs of childhood, hymns of faith that made us strong, A E Gbm A E A ones that our mother had taught us, hear the angels sing along. A A7 D A 6. One by one the seats were empty, one by one they went away, A E Gbm A E A now my family, they are parted, will they meet again someday?
