[Gm]
[G]
Will the circle be unbroken?
[C] By and by, Lord, by [G] and by.
There's a better woman waiting in the sky, Lord, in the sky.
I was standing by my window.
[C] It was on a cold and [Gm] cloudy [G] day.
I said when I saw the first car rolling,
[F] Oh, [G] to carry my mother away.
[Gm] Will the circle be [G] unbroken?
[Eb] By and [C] by, Lord, by [Bb] and [G] by.
There's a better woman waiting, [E] Lord, in the [G] sky, Lord, in [Bb] the [G] sky.
I would follow close behind her,
[C] Try to hold up [Gm] and be [G] brave,
But I could not hold my sorrow,
Lord, when it laid her in [D] the [G] grave.
Will the circle be unbroken?
By [C] and by, Lord, by [Bb] and [G] by.
There's a better woman waiting [Gm] in [G] the sky, Lord, in [F] the [G] sky.
Lord, will the circle be unbroken?
[C] By and by, Lord, by [Bb] [G] and by.
There's a better woman waiting [C] in [G] the sky, Lord, [C] in the [Bb] sky.
