“A Sunday Kind of Love”
Full Song Lyrics:
[Verse 1 – Dm, G7, Cmaj7]
(Dm) I met you on a (G7) Sunday, you melted my heart like a summer’s (Cmaj7) day
(Dm) Your smile was warm and inviting, (G7) I knew I wanted you to (Cmaj7) stay
[Chorus – Em, Am, G, C]
(Em) Cause I need a Sunday (Am) kind of love
(G) A love that’s pure and bright, (C) just like the morning light
(Em) I want a Sunday (Am) kind of love
(G) A love that’s sweet and true, (C) a love I only found in you
[Verse 2 – Dm, G7, Cmaj7]
(Dm) We spent our days just (G7) laughing, in the quiet corners of the (Cmaj7) library
(Dm) Our love was like a secret, (G7) in the pages of a book of (Cmaj7) poetry
[Chorus – Em, Am, G, C]
(Em) Cause I need a Sunday (Am) kind of love
(G) A love that’s pure and bright, (C) just like the morning light
(Em) I want a Sunday (Am) kind of love
(G) A love that’s sweet and true, (C) a love I only found in you
[Bridge – F, G, Am, G]
(F) In the chapel on Sundays, (G) in the quiet corners of the hallway
(Am) I’ll always love you, (G) on Sundays and every day
[Chorus – Em, Am, G, C]
(Em) Cause I need a Sunday (Am) kind of love
(G) A love that’s pure and bright, (C) just like the morning light
(Em) I want a Sunday (Am) kind of love
(G) A love that’s sweet and true, (C) a love I only found in you
[End – Dm, G7, Cmaj7]
(Dm) On a quiet Sunday evening, (G7) our love story keeps on (Cmaj7) weaving
