Sunday Mornin’ Comin’ Down: Chords

MIb7             LAb
 Well, I woke up Sunday morning
        REb            MIb              LAb
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
                                        FAm
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
                        MIb7
So I had one more for dessert
       LAb           LAb7              REb
Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
                            LAb    FAm
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
       REb                MIb
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
SIbm                  MIb7
And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day
    LAb                LAb7
I'd smoked my mind the night before
REb                 MIb7           LAb
With cigarettes and songs I'd been pickin'
                       
But I lit my first and watched a small kid
FAm                             MIb7
 Playing with a can that he was kicking
       LAb               LAb7
Then I walked across the street
               REb
And caught the Sunday smell 
             LAb              MIb/SOL FAm
of someone's fryin' chicken
            REb             MIb              SIbm
And Lord it took me back to something that I lost
           MIb7              LAb
Somewhere, somehow along the way

     LAb            REb
On a Sunday morning sidewalk
                              LAb
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned
                              MIb7
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
                        LAb
That makes a body feel alone
                             REb
And there's nothin' short of dyin'
                               LAb    
That's half as lonesome as the sound
                     MIb7
Of the sleeping city sidewalks
                          LAb
And Sunday morning coming down

       LAb          LAb7
In the park I saw a daddy
       REb             MIb7             LAb
With a laughin' little girl that he was swinging
                        
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
FAm                                 MIb7
And listened to the songs they were singing
       LAb             LAb7
Then I headed down the street
              REb                        
And somewhere far away, 
                  LAb      MIb/SOL FAm
a lonely bell was ringing
       REb                MIb
And it echoed through the canyons
       SIbm         MIb7        LAb
Like a disappearing dreams of yesterday

                    REb
On a Sunday morning sidewalk
                              LAb
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned
                              MIb7
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
                        LAb
That makes a body feel alone
                             REb
And there's nothin' short of dyin'
                               LAb
That's half as lonesome as the sound
                     MIb7
Of the sleepin' city sidewalks
                          LAb
And Sunday morning coming down
