G 
Millworker houses lined up in a row 
        C2 
Another southern Sunday's morning glow 
G 
Beneath the steeple all the people have begun 
       C2 
Shakin hands with the man who grips the gospel gun 
           C 
While the quiet prayer 
             D 
The smell of dinner on the ground 
             C 
Fills up the mornin air 
             Em      D 
ain't nothin sweeter around 
D (slow strum) 
I can almost hear my momma pray 
 
G 
Oh Lord forgive us, when we doubt 
        C2 
another sacred Sunday in the South 
 
Verse 2 
continue with same chords as Verse 1 
 
A ragged rebel flag flies high above it all 
 
poppin in the wind like an angry cannon ball 
 
Now the coals of history are cold and still 
 
but they still smell the powder burning and they probably always will 
 
and on the old town square under the barber shop pole 
 
they set me up in the chair 
 
when I was 4-years old 
 
I cannot almost hear my papa say 
 
Chorus 2 
 
want you hold still son stop squirmin around 
 
another southern Sunday's comin' 'round 
 
break 
 
C2   | D   |  C2   |   Em  D 
 
I can almost hear the old folks say 
 
G 
you'll make it big one day and leave this town 
              C2 
it's another lazy Sunday, back around 
 
G    |  G   |  C2   |  C2 
 
      G strum and hold 
I can feel the evenin' sun go down 
            C2 strum and hold 
and all the lights in the houses one by one go out 
G 
softly in the distance nothin' stirs about 
        C2 strum once 
and the night is filled 
                    C2 strum once 
with the sound of a whipperwhill 
C2 slow strum 
on a sunday in the south allright 
 
repeat intro until end 
 
just another Sunday (just another Sunday in the south) 
 
Oh, another sacred Sunday in the south 
 
just another sunday (how I miss those old sweet Sunday's in the south) 
 
another sacred Sunday (I can hear my momma callin' in the south, allright) 
 
just another Sunday (ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
