Johnny Cash — Sunday Morning Coming Down (ver 6) Chords
G
Well, I woke up Sunday morning
C D G
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
G E
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
D
So I had one more for dessert
G C
Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
G E
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
C D
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
A D
Stumbled down the stairs to meet the day
G
Well I smoked my mind the night before
C G
With cigarettes and songs that I'd been pickin'
But I lit my first and watched a small boy
A D
Cussin' at a can that he'd been kickin'
G
I crossed the empty street
C G
Caught the Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken
C D A
And it took me back to somethin' that I'd lost
D G
Somewhere, somehow along the way
C
On a Sunday morning sidewalk
G
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stone
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
E
Sunday morning coming down
In the park I saw a daddy
With a laughin' little girl that he'd been swingin'
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
Listened to the songs that they were singin'
I headed down the road,
Somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin'
And it echoed through the canyon
Like a disappearin' dream of yesterday
