Story behind the song
I went round to Andy's with my bass and he got the 4 track out along with his guitar, a shaker and some water. So we did 2 tracks each. It's one of those that starts off slowly - and then fizzles out altogether! Ha,ha. But it seemed to take ages and later on we only did 1 track together and did 6 in the session! We did this live at our second buskers in 2005 (I think). We may have done it once since then. Need a violinist!
Lyrics
v1 I can't sleep tonight Everybody saying everything is alright Still I can't close my eyes I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights Prechorus Sunny days Where have you gone? I get the strangest feeling I belong Chorus Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was 17? Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning v2 Prechorus Chorus Middle 8 Oh, Where did the blue sky go An' why is it raining so, it's so co-old! v1 Prechorus Chorus end Why does it always rain on me? Why does it always rain on, oh, oh.
