Sun Comin' Up Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]It's that time of the morning
[D]when the sun [G]starts coming up
And I'm standing on the corner
with my guitar and my cup
And I'm waiting for some people
to come by and [C]fill [G]it up
But the sun ain't [D]come up yet this [G]morning
I spend nights in the bar room
for the small change I can make
But the money don't repay me
for the things I have to take
Somebody buys me liquor,
then they [C]laugh at how I shake
[G]But it makes my [D]sun come
up each [G]morning[Abm][Ab]
See that man with the spit shine on his shoes,
I know him well
He'll slip me half a dollar,
walk on by me, turn and yell
Hey, that bar spot ain't for lickers
[Db]Well, he can go to hell
[Ab]Cause he just made my [Eb]son
come up this [Ab]morning[A]
Lord, I wish I could remember
how it feels to be a man
To get knocked down
and have the guts to get back up again
And know that I don't really need
this [D]bottle in my [A]hand
To make my [E]son come
up each [A]morning[Bb]
Lord, the devil knows he's got me
When the bottle does me in
But hell can't be no worse
than places I've already been
And I don't want to go to her bar
Cause I [Eb]hear there ain't no [Bb]gin
[Bbm]

[Verse 2]
[Bb]
to make my sun come up each morning.

[Verse 3]
It's [Bb]that time of the morning

[Verse 4]
when the sun [Bb]starts coming up,

[Verse 5]
and I'm [Bb]standing on the corner
with my guitar and my cup,

[Verse 6]
and I'm [Bb]waiting for some people
to come [Eb]by and fill it up.[Bb]

[Verse 7]
But my [Bb]sun ain't c[F]ome
up yet this [Bb]morning.

[Verse 8]
My [Bb]son ain't c[F]ome up yet this [Bb]mornin'
No, my son ain't come [F]up yet this [Bb]mornin'
