In spite of its five star rating the other version has some errors, so I have tried to fix them.
To emulate the Rhodes piano in the chorus try alternating the major triads with:
C* D* G*
e|-0--3--3
B|-3--3--1
G|-0--2--0
D|-2--0--0
A|-3--x--2
E|-x--x--3
Capo on the second fret.
Verse 1:
Well I Gwoke up Sunday morning
with no Cway to hold my head, that didn't Ghurt
and the beer I had for breakfast
wasn't Embad so I had one more for desDsert
Verse 2:
Than I Gfumble through my closet for
my Cclothes and found my cleanest dirty Gshirt G/F# Em
and I Cshaved my face and Amcombed my hair
and Cstumbled down the Dstairs to meet the Gday
Verse 3:
I'd smoGked my brain the night before
and cCigarettes and songs that I've been Gpickin'
but I lit my first and watched Ema small kid
cussin' at a can that he was Dkicking
Verse 4:
Then I Gcrossed the empty street and caught
the Csunday smell of someone fryin' Gchicken
and it Ctook me back to Amsomethin' that
I'd Clost somehow Dsomewhere along the Gway
Chorus:
/ C
On the Sunday mornin' sidewalks
wishing Lord that I was Gstoned
'cause there is something in a DSunday
that makes a body feel Galone
And there's nothin' short of Cdyin'
half as lonesome as the Gsound
on the sleepin' city Dsidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' Gdown
Verse 5:
In the Gpark I saw a daddy with
a Claughing little girl who he was Gswingin'
and I stopped beside a sunday school
and Emlistened to the song that they were Dsingin'
Verse 6:
Then I Gheaded back for home and
somewhere Cfar away a lonely bell was Gringin' G/F# Em
and it Cechoed thru the Amcanyon like
the Cdisappearing Ddreams of yesterGday.
Chorus:
/ C
On the Sunday mornin' sidewalks
wishing Lord that I was Gstoned
'cause there is something in a DSunday
that makes a body feel Galone
And there's nothin' short of Cdyin'
half as lonesome as the Gsound
on the sleepin' city Dsidewalks
Sunday mornin' comin' Gdown
Repeat the chords for the chorus while singing "doo doo doo..." and fade out.
