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 ...
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
