I remember when I was a ladTimes were

hard and things were E
badBut there's a silver linin' behind every
B7
cloudJust poor
E
people that all we wereTryin' to make a
A
livin' out of blackland E
earthBut we'd get together in a family
B7
circle singin' E
loud. ... [P]CHORUS
N.C.
Daddy sang bass, mama sang

A
brother would join right E
in thereSingin' seems to help a troubled
B7
soulOne of these
E
days and it won't be longI'll re-
A
join them in a E
songI'm gonna join the family
B7
circle at the E
throne. ...No, the circle won't be

A
brother will join right E
in thereIn the sky, Lord,
B7
in the E

You could hear us singin' for a country mile
Now little brother has done gone on but I'll rejoin him in a song
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while.
