That Lucky Old Sun

C F Fm C Dm7 G7
Oh Lawd, Oh Lawd I’m tired and weary of pain

C Em Fm C Dm7 G7
Please Lawd, Please Lawd, forgive me if I complain

C Am C F6 C
Up in the mornin', Out on the job, Work like the devil for my pay

F6 C Am C G7
But that lucky old sun got nothin' to do, But roll around heaven all day.

C Am Fm C F6 C
Fuss with my woman, toil for my kids, Sweat till I'm wrinkled and gray

F6 C Am C Dm7 C
While that lucky old sun got nothin' to do, But roll around heaven all day

Am Em F6 C Am G7 C
Dear Lord above, can't you know I'm pining, tears all in my eyes,
Am Em F6 C Cmaj7 Am D7 G7
Send down that cloud with a silver lining, lift me to Paradise

C Am Fm C F6 C
Show me that river, take me across, Wash all my troubles away

F6 C Am C Dm C
Like that lucky old sun, give me nothing to do, But roll around heaven all day
