Sunday in Savannah by Nina Simone
*see notes at bottom
G Em7 CMaj7 D7
One more Sunday in Savannah
G Em7 CMaj7 D7
Hear the whole creation shoutin' Praise the Lord
G Em7 CMaj7 D7
See them flinging out the banner
Em7 CMaj7 Am7 G
While the congregation says Amen
D Bm7 GMaj7 A7 D
Young folks tendin' Sunday School
Bm7 GMaj7 A7
They sing merrily 'bout the golden rule
D Bm7 GMaj7 A7 D
Parsons preaching all the day
Bm7 GMaj7 A7 D
They holler in the righteous way
G Em7 CMaj7 D7
It's time for me to call on my aunt Hannah
G Em7 CMaj7 D7
While she sits there wishing for her last reward
G Em7 CMaj7 D7
One more Sunday in Savannah
One more Sunday in Atlanta
D7 Em7
It's the same thing
D7 Em7
Same state
D7 Em7
Same feeling
Bm A G
Don't you dare
Am7 Bm C
Go fishin' son
D7 G
Amen
*Some of the transitions are iffy and the end part with "Same thing..." sounds in
the recording like it goes up but may just be adding notes to the chords I put
(i.e. add 9/11/13 etc.) Couldn't find this great song anywhere so I tried my best.
People with better ears and skills are encouraged to fix!
