SUNDAY MORNING COMING DOWN (Sunday Morning Sidewalk)

 VERSE 1:
         G
  Well I woke up Sunday morning
         C                        G
  With no way to hold my head, that didn't hurt
  
  And the beer I had for breakfast
               Em                              D
  Wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert
  
  VERSE 2:
         G
  Then I fumble through my closet for
    C                                G
  My clothes and found my cleanest dirty shirt
                            Em
  And I shaved my face and combed my hair
                                     D
  And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day
  
  VERSE 3:
         G
  I'd smoked my brain the night before
    C                                 G
  And cigarettes and songs that I've been pickin'
                                 Em
  But I lit my first and watched a small kid
                                 D
  Cussin' at a can that he was kicking
  
  VERSE 4:
         G
  Then I crossed the empty street and caught
         C                              G
  The Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken
  
  And it took me back to somethin' that
      Em                         D
  I'd lost somehow somewhere along away
  
  CHORUS:
                              C
  On a Sunday mornin' sidewalks
                         G
  Wishing Lord that I was stoned
                                         D
  'Cause there is something in a Sunday
                  G
  That makes a body feel alone
  
                             C
  And there's nothin' short of dyin'
                           G
  Half as lonesome as the sound
                         D
  On the sleepin' city sidewalks
                          G
  Sunday mornin' comin' down
  
  VERSE 5:
        G
  In the park, I saw a daddy with
        C                          G
  A laughing little girl who he was swingin'
                          Em
  And I stopped beside a Sunday school
                                          D
  And listened to the song that they were singin'
  
  VERSE 6:
         G
  Then I headed back for home and
         C                              G
  Somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin'
                               Em
  And it echoed through the canyon like
                                    D
  The disappearing dreams of yesterday.

Great song. Open_Mike. I know lots of folks are sentimental about Johnny Cash's recording of it, but I feel it's best done by KK himself. His phrasing is just more appropriate
