^E I remember when I was a lad Times were ^A hard and things were ^E bad But there's a silver linin' behind every ^B7 cloud Just poor ^E people that all we were Tryin' to make a ^A livin' out of blackland ^E earth But we'd get together in a family ^B7 circle singin' ^E loud. ...

CHORUS:

N.C.

Daddy sang bass, mama sang ^E7 tenor Me and little ^A brother would join right ^E in there Singin' seems to help a troubled ^B7 soul One of these ^E days and it won't be long I'll re^Ajoin them in a ^E song I'm gonna join the family ^B7 circle at the ^E throne. ...

No, the circle won't be ^E7 broken Bye and ^A bye, Lord, bye and ^E bye ... N.C. Daddy'll sing bass, mama'll sing ^E7 tenor Me and little ^A brother will join right ^E in there In the sky, Lord, ^B7 in the ^E sky.

Now I remember after work mama would call in all of us 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. CHORUS:...

TAG: ^E In the sky, Lord, ^B7 in the ^E sky.
