Verse 1
DD7 I remember when I was a lad GD Times were hard and things were bad A7 But there's a silver lining behind every cloud DD7 Just poor people that's all we were GD Try'n' to make a living outta blackland dirt DA7D We'd get together in a family circle singin' loud
Chorus D (Muted) Daddy Sang Bass D7 Momma sang tenor GD Me and little brother would join right in there A7 Singin' seems to help a troubled Soul.... DD7 One of these Days and it won't be Long GD I'll re-Join them in a Song A7D I'm gonna join the family Circle at the Throne...
Break
No the circle D7 Won't be broken GD Bye and Bye, Lord, bye and bye D (Muted) Daddy sang bass D7 Momma sang tenor GD Me and little brother would join right in there DGA7D In the sky, Lord, in the sky
Verse 2
D7 Now I remember after work GD Momma would call in all of us A7 You could hear us singin' for a country mile DD7 Now little brother has done gone on GD But i'll rejoin him in a song DA7D We'll be together again up yonder in a little while
Chorus D (Muted) Daddy Sang Bass D7 Momma sang tenor GD Me and little brother would join right in there A7 Singin' seems to help a troubled Soul.... DD7 One of these Days and it won't be Long GD I'll re-Join them in a Song A7D I'm gonna join the family Circle at the Throne...
No the circle D7 Won't be broken GD Bye and Bye, Lord, bye and bye D (Muted) Daddy sang bass D7 Momma sang tenor GD Me and little brother would join right in there DGA7D In the sky, Lord, in the sky
