Sunday Morning Coming Down
|
| Well, I woke up Sunday morning |
| D | E | A |
| With no | way to hold my | head that didn’t | hurt |
| A | F#m |
| And the | beer I had for breakfast wasn’t | bad |
| E |
| So I had one more for | dessert |
| A | D |
| Then I | fumbled in my closet through my | clothes |
| A | F#m |
| And found my cleanest dirty | shirt | |
| D | Bm |
| Then I | washed my face and | combed my hair |
| D | E | A |
| Stumbled down the | stairs to meet the | day |
|
| I smoked my mind the night before |
|
| With cigarettes and songs that I’d been pickin’ |
|
| But I lit my first and watched a small boy |
|
| Cussin’ at a can that he’d been kickin’ |
|
| I crossed the empty street |
|
| Caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin’ chicken |
|
| And it took me back to somethin’ that I’d lost |
|
| Somewhere, somehow along the way |
| A | D |
| On a Sunday morning | sidewalk |
| A |
| I’m wishing, Lord, that I was | stone |
| E |
| ’Cause there’s something in a | Sunday |
| A |
| That makes a body feel | alone |
| D |
| And there ain’t nothing short of | dying |
| A |
| Half as lonesome as the | sound |
| E |
| Of a sleeping city | sidewalk |
| A |
| Sunday morning coming | down |
|
| In the park I saw a daddy |
|
| With a laughin’ little girl that he’d been swingin’ |
|
| And I stopped beside a Sunday school |
|
| Listened to the songs that they were singin’ |
|
| Somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin’ |
|
| And it echoed through the canyon |
|
| Like a disappearin’ dream of yesterday |
|
| End the song strumming A-Asus4-Asus4-A |
