Sunday School To Broadway Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
Oh she [G]used to stand and
clap her hands and sing Amazing Grace
While the tears of childhood innocence
were streaming down her face
Mama prayed at night and raised her
right and thought she knew her way
But it's a long long way from Sunday School
to [D]where [G]she's [D]at today[G]
[C]

[Verse 2]
[G]
It's a [D]long long way from Sunday
School to [G]Broadway
She's a long way from the girl
she used to [D]be
When [G]you sing the city songs it's hard
[C]to find your way back [G]home
And it's a long long way from Sunday School
to [D]Broa- oa- [G]oad[C]way[G]

[Verse 3]
Sunday [G]evenings spent in the gospel
tent down [C]on her bended [G]knee
Where she gave her soul to Jesus
and he set her spirit [D]free
[G]But her body longed for city life
[C]and she couldn't stay at [G]home
And it's a long long way from Sunday
School to [D]New York nights alone
[G]

[Verse 4]
It's a [D]long long way from Sunday
School to [G]Broadway
She's a long way from the
girl she used to [D]be
When [G]you sing the city songs it's
hard to [C]find your way back [G]home
And [C]it's [G]a long long way from Sunday School
to [D]Broa- oa- [G]oad[Eb]way

[Verse 5]
Then her [Ab]eyes grew bright in the cool
Dark night and [Db]a halo framed her [Ab]face
And a passer- by swore he heard her cry,
can you hear Amazing Gra- [Eb]ace
Did [Ab]you see the man who took her
Life as [Db]she walked the New Y[Ab]ork streets
And it's a long long way from
Broadway till [Eb]the place at
the Master's feet
[Ab]

[Verse 6]
It's [Eb]a long long way from Sunday
School to [Ab]Broadway
She's a long way from the
girl she [Eb]used to be
When [Ab]you sing the city songs it's hard
[Db]to find your way back [Ab]home
And it's a long long way from Sunday [Eb]School
