Verse 1: E I remember when I was a lad A E Times were hard and things were bad B7 But there's a silver linin' behind every cloud E E7 Just poor people that all we were A E Tryin' to make a livin' out of blackland earth B7 E But we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud. ... Chorus: E E7 Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor A E Me and little brother would join right in there B7 Singin' seems to help a troubled soul E E7 One of these days and it won't be long A E I'll rejoin them in a song B7 E I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne. ... E7 No, the circle won't be broken A E Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye ... E E7 Daddy'll sing bass, mama'll sing tenor A E Me and little brother will join right in there B7 E E B7 E In the sky, Lord, in the sky. Verse 2: E A E Now I remember after work mama would call in all of us B7 You could hear us singin' for a country mile E E7 A E Now little brother has done gone on but I'll rejoin him in a song B7 E We'll be together again up yonder in a little while. Chorus: E E7 Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor A E Me and little brother would join right in there B7 Singin' seems to help a troubled soul E E7 One of these days and it won't be long A E I'll rejoin them in a song B7 E I'm gonna join the family circle at the throne. ... E7 No, the circle won't be broken A E Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye ... E E7 Daddy'll sing bass, mama'll sing tenor A E Me and little brother will join right in there B7 E E B7 E In the sky, Lord, in the sky.
