WILL THE CIRCLE BE UNBROKEN
George Jones
From the CD "Honky Tonkin'"
I was Gstanding by my windowG7  
On a Ccold and cloudy Gday
When I saw that hearse come roll Eming,
Lord, to Ccarry my Dmother a Gway
Will the Gcircle be unbrokenG7  
By and Cby, Lord, by and Gby
There's a better home await Eming
In the Csky - Lord, Din the Gsky
And I Gfollowed close behind her G7,
Tryin' to Chold up and be Gbrave
But, I could not hide my sorr Emow,
When they Claid her Din that Ggrave
Will the Gcircle be unbrokenG7  
By and Cby, Lord, by and Gby
There's a better home await Eming
In the Csky - Lord, Din the Gsky
I went Gback home - my home was lonesomeG7  
For my Cmother she was Ggone
Saw my brothers and sisters cry Eming
What a Chome so Dsad and a GloneG7  
Will the Gcircle be unbrokenG7  
By and Cby, Lord, by and Gby
There's a better home await Eming
In the Csky - Lord, Din the Gsky
Will the Gcircle be unbrokenG7  
By and Cby, Lord, by and Gby
There's a better home await Eming
In the Csky - Lord, Din the Gsky
There's a better home await Eming
In the Csky - Lord, Din the sky
