Daddy Sang Bass Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C]

[Verse 1]
I [C]remember when I was a lad
Times were [F]hard and things were [C]bad
But there's a silver linin'
behind every [G]cloud
Just poor people, [C]that 's all we were
Tryin' to make a liv[F]ing
out of black- land dirt
[C]But we'd get together in
a family [G]circle singing loud
[C]

[Verse 2]
[F]Daddy sang [Bm]bass, [G]mama sang [C]tenor
Me and [F]little brother would
join right in [C]there
Singing seems to help a troubled [G]soul
One of these [C]days and it won't be long
I'll re[F]join them in a [C]song
I'm gonna join the family
[G]circle at the throne
[C]

[Verse 3]
No, the circle won't be broken
By [F]and by, Lord, by and [C]by
Daddy sang [B]bass, [C]mama sang tenor
Me and little [F]brother would join right in [C]there
In the sky, Lord, [G]in the sky

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C]

[Verse 4]
Now I [C]remember after work,
mama [F]would call in all of [C]us
You could hear us singing
for a country [G]mile
Now little [C]brother has done gone on
But I'll [F]rejoin him in a song
[C]We'll be together again up
yon[G]der in a little while
[C]

[Verse 5]
Daddy [F]sang [C]bass, mama sang tenor
Me and little [F]brother would
join right in [C]there
'Cause singing seems to
help a troubled [G]soul
One of these [C]days and it won't be long
I'll re[F]join them in a [C]song
I'm gonna join the family
[G]circle at the throne
[C]

[Verse 6]
Oh no, the circle won't be broken
By and [F]by, Lord, by and [C]by
Daddy sang bass, mama sang tenor
Me and little [F]brother would join right [C]in there
In the sky, Lord, [G]in the [C]sky
In the sky, Lord, [G]in the sky
[C]
