Well, I woke up Sunday morning [F#] with no way to hold my head that [C#] didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't [A#m] bad, so I had one more for [G#] dessert
[G#] Then [C#] I fumbled through my closet for [F#] my clothes and found my cleanest [C#] dirty shirt
[A#m] [F#] And I shaved my face, combed my hair, [D#m] stumbled down the stairs [G#] to meet the day
[C#] [G#] [C#] Well, I smoked my brain the night before [F#] with cigarettes and songs that I'd [C#] been a-pickin'
But I lit my first and watched a small [A#m] kid cussin' at a can that [G#] he was kickin'
[C#] [G#] Then I [C#] crossed the empty street and caught [F#] the Sunday smell of someone frying chicken
[A#m] [F#] And it took me back [D#m] to something [F#] that I'd lost [G#] somehow somewhere [C#] along the way
On the Sunday [F#] morning sidewalk, wishin' Lord [C#] that I was stoned
[A#m] [C#] Cause there's somethin' [G#] in a Sunday [F#] [G#] makes a body [C#] feel alone
[Fm] And there's nothin' [F#] sure to die half as [C#] lonesome as the sound
[A#m] [C#] On a sleepy [G#] city sidewalk, Sunday morning [C#] comin' down
[F#] [C#] In the park I saw a daddy, [F#] [C#] he was swingin'
And I stopped beside the Sunday [A#m] school and listened to the song that [G#] they were singin'
[C#] [G#] [C#] Then I headed back for home and [F#] somewhere far away a lonely [C#] bell was ringin'
[A#m] [F#] And it echoed through the canyon like the [G#] disappearin' dreams [C#] of yesterday
On the Sunday [F#] morning sidewalk, wishin' Lord [C#] that I was stoned
[A#m] [C#] Cause there's somethin' [G#] in a Sunday makes a body [C#] feel alone
[F] And there's nothin' [F#] sure to die half as lonesome [C#] as the [Fm] sound
[A#m] On [C#] a sleepy [G#] city sidewalk, Sunday morning [C#] comin' down
