/************** SUNDAY MORNIN' COMIN' DOWN *************/ written and performed by Kris Kristofferson. Capo on the first fret. Verse 1:

Well I ^Gwoke up Sunday morning with no^C way to^G hold my head, that didn't hurt

and the beer I had for breakfast

wasn't bad so I had^Em one more for ^Ddessert

Verse 2:

Than I ^Gfumble through my closet for my clothes and found my cleanest dirty shi^Crt ^G and I sh^Emaved my face and combed my hair and stumbled down^D the stairs to meet the day

Verse 3:

I'd smo^Gked my brain the night before and cig^Carettes and songs that I've been pickin' ^G but I lit my ^Emfirst and watched a small kid cussin' at a can th^Dat he was kicking

Verse 4:

Then I ^Gcrossed the empty street and caught the sun^Cday smell of ^Gsomeone fryin' chicken

and it took me back to somethin' that

^EmI'd lost someho^Dw somewhere along away

Chorus: / C On a sunday mornin' sidewalks

wishing Lor^Gd that I was stoned 'cause there is something i^Dn a sunday that^G makes a body feel alone

And there's not^Chin' short of dyin' half as lones^Gome as the sound on the slee^Dpin' city side walks Sunday morni^Gn' comin' down

Verse 5:

In the^G park I saw a daddy with a laug^Ching litt^Gle girl who he was swingin' and I ^Emstopped beside a sunday school and listened to the song tha^Dt they were singin'

Verse 6:

Then I ^Gheaded back for home and somewhe^Cre far away a^G lonely bell was ringin' and it e^Emchoed thru the canyon like the disepparing ^Ddreams of yesterday.
