Come Sundown
Recorded by Bobby Bare
Written by Kris Kristofferson
G C G
I heard the front door closing softly
D7 G
As I wakened from my sleep
C G
With the last touch of her lips Lord
D7 G G7
Like a whisper on my cheek
C G
And I cursed the sun for rising
D7
For the worst Lord is yet to come
G C G
Cause this morning she's just leaving
D7 G
But come sundown she'll be gone
C G
See the lipstick on the pillow
D7 G
That I placed beneath her head
C G
And the soft sheets still feel warm Lord
D7 G G7
Where she lay upon my bed
C G
And it hurts to know it's over
D7
For the hurt Lord has just begun
G C G
Cause this morning she's just leaving
D7 C G
But come sundown she'll be gone
