             E

I remember when I was a lad,

                  A                              E

times were hard and things were bad.

                                                           B7

But there's a silver lining behind ev'ry cloud.

               E  

Just poor people, that's all we were;

                        A                                   E

try'n' to make a livin' out of black land dirt.

                                                   B7                       E

But we'd get together in a family circle singin' loud.



                                                   E

Daddy sang bass, mamma sang tenor.

                     A                                   E

Me and little brother would join right in there.

                                                 B7

Singin' seems to help a troubled soul.

                     E

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.



No, the circle won't be broken.

              A                            E

Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye.

                                                   E

Daddy sang bass, mamma sang tenor.

                     A                                   E

Me and little brother would join right in there.

                           B7     E

In the sky, Lord, in the sky.

                      E

Now, I remember after work,

                           A                      E

mama would call         in all of us.

                                                             B7

You could hear us singin' for a country mile.

                  E

Now, little brother has done gone on,

                   A                    E

but I'll rejoin him in a song.

                                          B7                      E

We'll be together again up yonder in a little while.
