I was standing by my window 
       D               A 
On one cold and cloudy day 
       A                    A    F#m    
When I saw that hearse come rolling  
    A           E       A 
For to carry my mother away  


         A            A7  
Will the circle be unbroken  
       D                A 
By and by, Lord, by and by  
          A                  F#m 
There's a better home a-waiting  
       A          E      A 
In the sky, Lord, in the sky   
 
I said to that undertaker  

undertaker please drive slow  

for this lady you are carrying  

Lord, I hate to see here go  

Chorus 
 
Banjo/Guitar Solo  
 
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  
 
Chorus  
 
I went back home, my home was lonesome  

missed my mother, she was gone  

all of my brothers, sisters crying  

what a home so sad and lone  
 
Chorus  
 
Fiddle/Dobro Solo 
 
We sang the songs of childhood  

Hymns of faith that made us strong  

Ones that Mother Maybelle taught us  

Hear the angels sing along  
 
Chorus 
 
Chorus
