Sunday Morning Coming Down (Johnny Cash)

VERSE:

G

1. Well, I woke up Sunday morning

2. I smoked my mind the night before

3. In the park I saw a daddy

C D G G

1. With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt

2. With cigarettes and songs that I'd been pickin'

3. With a laughin' little girl that he'd been swingin'

Em

1. And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad

2. But I lit my first and watched a small boy

3. And I stopped beside a Sunday school

D D

1. So I had one more for dessert

2. Cussin' at a can that he'd been kickin'

3. Listened to the songs that they were singin'

G C

1. Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes

2. I crossed the empty street

3. I headed down the road,

G Em

1. And found my cleanest dirty shirt

2. Caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken

3. Somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin'

C D

1. Then I washed my face and combed my hair

2. And it took me back to somethin' that I'd lost

3. And it echoed through the canyon

1. Stumbled down the stairs to meet the day

2. Somewhere, somehow along the way

3. Like a disappearin' dream of yesterday

VERSE (2)

CHORUS:

G C

On a Sunday morning sidewalk

G

I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned

D

'Cause there's something in a Sunday

G

That makes a body feel alone

C

And there ain't nothing short of dying

G

Half as lonesome as the sound

D

Of a sleeping city sidewalk

G

Sunday morning coming down.
