Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][A][Bb][G]
[A][Bb][G]

[Verse 1]
Kiss me on [A]a
Sunday
[Bb]Hop and skip and run d[G]ay
And though he left on [A]Monday
His [Bb]kiss stayed lingering
[G]

[Verse 2]
[C]In the days to [Bb]follow
My [F]heart became a [C]hollow
And [Eb]like the lonely [Bb]swallow
I've [F]but one song [Bb]to sing[C][Csus2][C]
Of [Eb]happy [Bb]sorrow only love can
[C]bring[Csus2]
[C][G]

[Verse 3]
Letter came on [A]Tuesday[Bb]
Goodbye to those [G]blues days
He asked me that good [A]news day
[Bb]To catch the Wednesday train
[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]Hands of clock are [Bb]lagging
[F]Hours pass [Bb]are d[C]ragging[Eb]
Warning tongues are [Bb]wagging
You'll [F]break your heart [Bb]again[C]
But I [Eb]know this love
Would [Bb]never bring me [C]pain

[Interlude 1]
[C][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]Often while we [Asus4]wander[A]
[C]My lov[Bb]e and I do pon[G]der
Which of us is [Asus4]fonder[A]
Of the [Bb]new love each has found
[G]

[Verse 6]
[C]
I say, "He's the [Bb]baker"
That makes [F]the [Bb]wonder [C]awaken
Take the [Eb]refuge that [Bb]she's seeking
From [F]the stormy world [C]around
And [Eb]forget the lonely [Bb]places
She was [C]bound
