Sunday's Best Elvis Costello INTRO: A |A |A |A |G |G |G |G | A |A |A |A |G |G |G |G | A G Times are tough for English babies Send the army and the navy A G Beat up strangers who talk funny Take their greasy foreign money A G Skin shop, red leather, hot line Be prepared for the engaged sign D E Bridal books, engagement rings And other wicked little things CHORUS: D E Standing in your socks and vest Better get it off your chest D D A/C# E/B Every day is just like the rest But Sunday's best A G Stylish slacks to suit your pocket Back supports and picture lockets A G Sleepy towns and sleeper trains To the dogs and down the drains A G Major roads and ladies smalls Hearts of oak and long trunk calls D E Continental interference At death's door with life insurance CHORUS D E Sunday's best, Sunday's finest When your money's in the minus D E And you suffer from your shyness You can listen to us whiners A G Don't look now under the bed An arm, a leg and a severed head A G Read about the private lives The songs of praise, the readers' wives A G Listen to the decent people Though you treat them just like sheep D E Put them all in boots and khaki Blame it all upon the darkies CHORUS D A/C# E/B D A/C# E/B D A/C# E/B D A/C# E/B Sunday's best Sunday's best Sunday's best Sunday's best ENDING FADE OUT: D A/C# | E/B E | D A/C# | E/B E | ***************************************************************************************** The above is solely MY INTERPRETATION of this great song, in a format aimed at learning guitarists.
