[Verse]
GWell I remember when I was a lad
Times were Chard and things were Gbad
But there's a silver linin'... behind every D7cloud
Just poor Gpeople that's all we were
Tryin' to make a Clivin' outta outback Gdirt
But we'd get together in a D7circle and sing out Gloud ...
[Chorus]
 	  	 Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor
G7Me and little Cbrother would join right Gin there
Singin'... seems to help a troubled D7soul
One of these Gdays it won't be long
We'll all Cjoin in this Gsong
We'll all get together up D7yonder at the Gthrone ...
 	  	 No, the circle ... won't be broken
G7Bye and Cbye, Lord, bye and Gbye ...
 	  	 Daddy'll sing bass, mama'll sing tenor
G7Me and little Cbrother will join right Gin there
In the sky Lord ... D7in the Gsky.
GNow I remember after work
mama would Ccall in all of Gus
You could hear us singin' ... for a country D7mile
Now little Gbrother he has gone on
and I'm gonna Cjoin him before too Glong
We'll all get together up D7yonder at the Gthrone ...
[Chorus]
In the sky, Lord, D7in the Gsky
Said In the sky Lord ... D7in the Gsky ...

D7 G

But we'd get together in a circle and sing out loud ...

Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor

Singin'... seems to help a troubled soul

One of these days it won't be long
