Kristofferson Kris - Sunday Morning Coming Down guitar chord

#

/************** SUNDAY MORNIN' COMIN' DOWN *************/

written and performed by Kris Kristofferson.

Capo on the first fret.

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

Than 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 side walks

        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 thru the canyon like

          D

the disepparing dreams of yesterday.

Thanks to Jan Ekeland for the lyrics.

Well I woke up Sunday morning
