[Intro]
G   G

[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
Then I fumble through my closet for
   C                                   G     G/F# Em
my clothes and found my cleanest dirty shirt
      C
and I shaved my face and combed my hair
    Am                                   D
and stumbled down the stairs to meet the day

[Verse 3]
    G
I'd smoked my brain the night before
   C                                   G
on cigarettes and songs that I've been pickin'

but I lit my first and watched a small kid
Em                           D
cussin' at a can that he was kicking

[Verse 4]
       G
Then I crossed the empty street and caught
    C                              G      G/F# Em
the Sunday smell of someone fryin' chicken
       C               Am
and it took me back to somethin' that
    C            D                   G
I'd lost somehow somewhere along the way

[Chorus]
                      C
On the 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 sidewalks
                      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'

and I stopped beside a Sunday school
    Em                                  D
and listened to the song that they were singin'

[Verse 6]
       G
Then I headed back for home and
          C                          G      G/F# Em
somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringin'
       C               Am
and it echoed thru the canyon like
    C            D               G
the disappearing dreams of yesterday.

[Chorus]
                      C
On the 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 sidewalks
                      G
Sunday mornin' comin' down

[Outro]
                    C
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo..
                        G
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo..
                    D
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo..
                        G
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
