G                       A#   
I am tragically covered Sunday, 

            A                G*
Bleeding Sunday, Sunday's blood.

G                      A#        
Who is always sneaking around on 

    A               G*
the polished palace floor?

G    A#      A    G*
Oooo-oooh... Oooo-oooh

G                      A#        
Who is always knocking on my, on 

   A               G*
my palace doctor's door?

on the palace floor.
