SONG: Will The Circle Be Unbroken?
ARTIST: Traditional
[G]I was standing by my window on a [C]cold and cloudy [G] day.
[G]When I saw that [Em]hearse come rollin' for to [G]carry my [D]mother a[G]way.
CHORUS
[G]Lord, I told that undertaker “Un[C]dertaker please drive [G]slow,
[G]For this body [Em]that you’re haul-ing, Lord I [G]hate to [D]see her [G]go.”
CHORUS
[G]I fol-lowed close behind her, tried to [C]hold up and be [G]brave.
[G]But I could not [Em]hide my sorrow, when they [G]laid her [D]in the [G]grave.
CHORUS
[G]I went home, my home was lonely, Now [C]my mother she has [G]gone.
[G]All my brothers, [Em]sisters crying, what a [G]home so [D]sad and a[G]lone.
