G Well I remember when I was a lad 
Times were C hard and things were G bad 
But there's a silver linin'... behind every D7 cloud 
Just poor G people that's all we were 
Tryin' to make a C livin' outta outback G dirt 
But we'd get together in a D7 circle and sing out G loud ...   
		Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor 
		G7 Me and little C brother would join right G in there 
		Singin'... seems to help a troubled D7 soul 
		One of these G days it won't be long 
		We'll all C join in this G song 
		We'll all get together up D7 yonder at the G throne ... 
 
		No, the circle ... won't be broken 
		G7 Bye and C bye, Lord, bye and G bye ...  
		Daddy'll sing bass, mama'll sing tenor 
		G7 Me and little C brother will join right G in there 
		In the sky Lord ... D7 in the G sky.
 
G Now I remember after work 
mama would C call in all of G us 
You could hear us singin' ... for a country D7 mile 
Now little G brother he has gone on 
and I'm gonna C join him before too G long 
We'll all get together up D7 yonder at the G throne ... 
 
Chorus 
 
In the sky, Lord, D7 in the G sky 
Said In the sky Lord ... D7 in the G sky ... C G D7 G
