G G7 I remember when I was a lad C G Times were hard and things were bad D7 But thereʼs a silver lininʼ behind every cloud G G7 Just poor people thatʼs all we were C G Tryinʼ to make a livinʼ out of blackland dirt D7 G But weʼd get together in a family circle singing loud G7 Daddy sang bass Mama sang tenor C G Me and little brother would join right in there D7 Singinʼ seems to help a troubled soul G G7 One of these days and it wonʼt be long C G Iʼll rejoin them in a song D7 G Iʼm gonna join the family circle at the throne G7 No the circle wonʼt be broken C G Bye and bye Lord bye and bye G7 Daddyʼll sing bass Mamaʼll sing tenor C G Me and little brother will join right in there C D7 G In the sky Lord in the sky G7 Now I remember after work C G Mama would call in all of us D7 You could hear us singinʼ for a country mile G G7 Now little brother has done gone on C G But Iʼll rejoin him in a song D7 G Weʼll be together again up yonder in a little while
