Sunday Morning Coming Down Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Well, I [G]woke up Sunday morning
With no [C]way to hold my [D]head that didn't [G]hurt
And the [G]beer I had for breakfast wasn't [Em]bad
So I had one more for des[D]sert
Then I fum[G]bled in my closet
through my [C]clothes,
and found my cleanest dirty [G]shirt[Em]
Then I [C]washed my face and [D]combed my hair
[Am]And stumbled down the [D]stairs to meet the day

[Verse 2]
I'd [G]smoked my mind the night before
[C]With cigarettes and [D]songs I'd been [G]picking
But I [G]lit my first and watched a small kid
[Em]Playing with a can that he was kicki[D]ng
Then I [G]walked across the street
And caught the [C]Sunday smell
of someone's [G]frying [Em]chicken
And Lord, it [C]took me back to [D]something
that I'd [Am]lost
Somewhere, [D]somehow along [G]the way

[Chorus 1]
On a [G]Sunday morning [C]sidewalk
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was [G]stoned
'Cause there's something in a [D]Sunday
That makes a body feel a[G]lone
And there's nothing short [C]a' dying
That's half as lonesome as [G]the sound
Of the sleeping city [D]sidewalk
And Sunday morning coming [G]down

[Verse 3]
In the [G]park I saw a daddy
With a [C]laughing little [D]girl that he [G]was swinging
And I [G]stopped beside a Sunday school
[Em]And listened to the songs they w[D]ere singing
Then I [G]headed down the street
And somewhere [C]far away
a lonely bell [G]was [Em]ringing
And it [C]echoed through the [D]canyons
Like [Am]the disappearing [D]dreams o[G]f yesterday

[Chorus 2]
On a [G]Sunday morning [C]sidewalk
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was [G]stoned
'Cause there's something in a [D]Sunday
That makes a body feel a[G]lone
And there's nothing short [C]a' dying
That's half as lonesome as [G]the sound
Of the sleeping city [D]sidewalk
And Sunday morning coming [G]down
