[Verse]GWell I woke up Sunday morningC D Gwith no way to hold my head that didn't hurtEmand the beer I had for breakfast wasn't badDso I had one more for des-sertG G7 Cthen I fumbled in my closet through my clothesG Emand found my cleanest, dirty shirtC Dthen I washed my face, and combed my hairC Dand stumbled down the stairs to meet the day[Verse]G G7I'd smoked my mind the night beforeC D Gwith cigarettes and songs I'd been pickingEmbut I lit my first and watched a small kid playingDwith the can that he was kickingG G7then I walked across the streetC G Emand caught the Sunday smell of someone's frying chickenC D Amand lord it took me back to some-thin that I lost somewhereD Gsomehow along the way[Chorus]Con a Sunday morning sidewalkGI'm wishing lord, that I was stonedDcause there's something in a SundayGthat makes the body feel aloneCand there's nothing short of dyingGthat's half as lonesome as the soundDof the sleeping city sidewalksGand Sunday morning coming down[Verse]G7in the park I saw a daddyC D Gwith a laughing little girl that he was swingingand I stopped beside a Sunday schoolEm Dand listened to the songs that they were singingG G7then I headed down the streetC G Emand somewhere far away a lonely bell was ring - ingC Dand it echoed through the canyonsAm D Glike our disappearing dreams of yester - day[Chorus]Con a Sunday morning sidewalkGI'm wishing lord, that I was stonedDcause there's something in a SundayGthat makes the body feel aloneCand there's nothing short of dyingGthat's half as lonesome as the soundDof the sleeping city sidewalksGand Sunday morning coming down
