Hello Chris
[G] [A]
[D] [C] [D]
[E] [D#]
[C#] [G]
[A]
[C#] This this first song for Johnny Cash
[G]
Woke up a Sunday morning.
No [C]
way to hold my hair
[Em] Hurt [G] and
The beer I had for breakfast wasn't [E] bad
So I had one more [Em] for dessert
[D]
Then I [G] fumbled through my closet for my [C] clothes and found my cleanest dirty shirt
[G]
[Em]
[C] And I washed my face comb my hair
[Am] Stumbled down the stairs to meet the [D] day
I'd smoke [G] my brain [C] the night [G] before
[C] Cigarettes and songs that I've been [G] picking
But I lit my first and washed a small kid
[Em]
Cussing at a can that he was kicking
[D]
Then I [G] crossed the empty street and caught [C] the Sunday smell of someone frying [G] chicken
[Em]
[C] And it took me back to [Am] something that [C] I'd lost somehow
[D] somewhere along the [G] way
On the Sunday morning [C] sidewalk
Wishing Lord that I [G] was strong
There's something [C] in a [D] Sunday
Takes a body
along
[G]
There ain't nothing short [C] of dying
Half as lonesome as the [G] sound
on the sleeping city [D] sidewalk
Sunday [Bm] morning
[D]
[G] coming down
In the park, I saw a daddy
With a [C] laughing little girl.
He [G] was swinging
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
[E] Listen to the song that they were [D] singing
Then I [G] headed back for home and somewhere [C] far away
A lonesome bell was [G] ringing
[Em] And
[C] It echoed through [Am] the canyon like [C] the disappearing [D] dreams of [G] yesterday
the Sunday morning [C]
sidewalk
Wishing Lord that I was [G] strong
Or there's something [C] in a [D] Sunday
Takes a body
[G] along
There ain't nothing short [C] of dying
Half as lonesome as [G] the sound
on the sleeping city [D] sidewalk
Sunday morning coming [G] down
On the Sunday morning [C] sidewalk
Wishing Lord that [G] I was strong
There's something in a [D] Sunday
[C] Takes a [D] body
[G] along
There ain't nothing short [C] of dying
Half as lonesome as the [G]
sound
the sleeping city [D]
sidewalk
Sunday morning coming down
Thank you
