INTRO: D A7 D
D
I was standing by my window
G D
On a cold and cloudy day
D
When I saw the hearse come rollings
A7 D
For to carry my mother away
CHORUS:
D
Will the circle be unbroken
G D
By and by Lord, by and by
D D-D/F#-Bm
There's a better home a-waiting
D A7 D
In the sky Lord in the sky
Well I went back home, home was lonely
For my mother she was gone
All my family there was cryin'
For our home felt sad and alone
CHORUS
SOLO
D
Undertaker, undertaker
G D
Undertaker, won't you please drive slow
D D Bm
For that lady you are hauling
D A7 D
Lord I hate to see her go
CHORUS
D D-D/F#-Bm
There's a better home a-waiting
D A7 D
In the sky Lord in the sky
