-3* -3* -7*-7* -7* -7* 7* 7
Well I woke up Sun-day morn-ing,
-6 7 7* 7* 7* 7* 7
With no way to hold my head
-6 -5* -6 7
that did-n’t hurt.
-3* -3* -7* -7*-7* 7 7* 7
And the beer I had for break-fast
7 -6 -5*
Was-n’t bad,
5 -5* -6 7 -5* -5 5 -3*
So I had one more for des-sert.
7 7*-7* -7* -7* -7*
Then I fum-bled through my
8 -7* 7 -5* 8
clos-et for my clothes,
8 8 -9 -9* 7* 8 -7* -7*
And found my clean-est dir-ty shirt.
7 7 7* 7* 7* 7 7* 7 7*
An’ I shaved my face and combed my hair,
7 -6 -6 -6 -5* -6
An’ stum-bled down the stairs
5 -5* -5* -5
to meet the day.

-7* -7* -7* -7* -7* 7* 7 -6
I’d smoked my brain the night be-fore,
7 7* 7* 7*
With cig-a-rettes
7* 7 -6 -5* -6 7 7
and songs that I’d been pick-in’
-3*-3*-7* -7* -7* 7 7* 7 7 -6
But I lit my first and watched a small kid,
-5* 5 -5*-6 7 -5* -5 5 -3* -3*
Cuss-in’ at a can that he was kick-ing.
7 7* -7* -7* -7* -7* 8
Then I crossed the emp-ty street
-7* 7 -5* 8 8 8
‘n caught the Sun-day smell
-9 -9* 7* 8 -7* -7* -7*
of some-one fry-in’ chick-en.
7 7 7* 7* 7* 7* 7 -6
And it took me back to some-thin’
-6 7 7* 7* 7*
That I’d lost some-how,
7 7 -6 -6 -5* -5*
some-where a-long the way.

7 7 -9* -9* -9* -9 -9 9
On the Sun-day morn-ing side-walks,
-9* -9* -9 7* 9 9 -7*
Wish-in’ Lord, that I was stoned,
7 7* -7* -7* 7* 7 7 -6
‘Cause there’s some-thing in a Sun-day,
7* 7* 7 -6 -5* -6 7
Makes a bod-y, feel a-lone,

7 7* -9* -9* -9* -9 -9 9
And there’s noth-in’ short of dy-in’
-9* -9* -9 -9 9 9 -7*
Half as lone-some, as the sound,
7 7* -7* -7* 7* 7 7 -6
On the sleep-in’ cit-y side walks,
7* 7* 7 -6 -5* -5 -5*
Sun-day morn-in’ com-in’ down,

7 7* -9* -9* -9* -9 -9 9
And there’s noth-in’ short of dy-in’
-9* -9* -9 -9 9 9 -7*
Half as lone-some, as the sound,
7 7* -7* -7* 7* 7 7 -6
On the sleep-in’ cit-y side walks,
7* 7* 7 -6 -5* -5 -5*
Sun-day morn-in’ com-in’ down,
7* 7* 7 -6 -5* -5 -5*
Sun-day morn-in’ com-in’ down.

-3*-3* -7* -7*-7*-7* 7* 7
In the park I saw a dad-dy,
-6 7 7* 7* 7* 7* 7
With a laugh-in’ lit-tle girl
-6 -5* -6 7 7
That he was swing-in’
-3*-3* -7* -7* -7* 7 7* 7 7
And I stopped be-side a Sun-day school
-6 -5* 5 -5* -6 7
And lis-tened to the song
-5* -5 5 -3* -3*
that they were sing-in’
7 7* -7* -7* -7* -7* 8
Then I head-ed back for home,
-7* 7 -6 8 8 8
And some-where far a-way
-9 -9* 7* 8 -7* -7* -7*
a lone-ly bell was ring-in’
7 7 7* 7* 7* 7* 7 -6
And it ech-oed thru the can-yons,
-6 7 7* 7* 7* 7 7
Like the dis-ap-pear-ing dreams
-6 -6 -5* -5*
of yes-ter-day

7 7 -9* -9* -9* -9 -9 9
On the Sun-day morn-ing side-walks,
-9* -9* -9 7* 9 9 -7*
Wish-in’ Lord, that I was stoned,
7 7* -7* -7* 7* 7 7 -6
‘Cause there’s some-thing in a Sun-day,
7* 7* 7 -6 -5* -6 7
Makes a bod-y, feel a-lone,

7 7* -9* -9* -9* -9 -9 9
And there’s noth-in’ short of dy-in’
-9* -9* -9 -9 9 9 -7*
Half as lone-some, as the sound,
7 7* -7* -7* 7* 7 7 -6
On the sleep-in’ cit-y side walks,
7* 7* 7 -6 -5* -5 -5*
Sun-day morn-in’ com-in’ down,
