KRIS KRISTOFFERSON - Sunday Morning Coming Down2 guitar chord

Kris Kristofferson--Sunday Morning Coming Down

A great song, right here, from a great songwriter.

This version sounds right to me.

Enjoy.

G

Well I woke up Sunday morning

C D7 G

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

Em

And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad

D7

So I had one more for dessert

G C

Then I fumbled through my closet for my clothes

G Em

And found my cleanest dirty shirt

C Am

And I shaved my face and combed my hair

C D G C G

And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day

I'd smoked my brain the night before

C D7 G

On cigarettes and songs I'd been pickin

Em

But I lit my first and watched a small kid

D7

Cussin at a can that he was kickin

G C

Then I crossed the empty street and caught the Sunday smell

G Em

Of someone fryin chicken

C Am

And it took me back to something

C D G C G

I'd lost somehow somewhere along the way

CHORUS

C

On a Sunday morning sidewalk

G

Wishin Lord that I was stoned

D

'Cause there's something in a Sunday

G

That makes a body feel alone

C

There ain't nothin short of dying

G

Half as lonesome as the sound

D

On the sleepin city sidewalks

G

Sunday mornin coming down

In the park I saw a daddy

C D7 G

With a laughing little girl who he was swingin

Em

And I stopped beside a Sunday school

D7

Listened to the song that they were singin

G C

Then I headed back for home and somewhere along the way

G Em

A lonely bell was ringin

C Am

And it echoed through the canyons

C D G C G

Like the disappearin dreams of yesterday

CHORUS

Sorry if the chord placement is a tad off; it's hard to do this from memory.

Just trust me, the change is somewhere near where I put it.

P.S. I've seen versions of it with a capo on the 1st fret, leave out the

Am and D7 chords, but it doesn't sound right to me.
