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!
