I forgot how much I fell in love with this song in '79! Wonderful lyrics...


D  G  D  G

D           A          D
I know all about black clouds 
D                        A   G
There's one that follows me around
D      A          Bm       G
It may sound funny but somehow, 
D                A    G  A
It only rains on me
D                    A    D
It follows me almost everywhere, 
D                A      G
And it seems its hardly fair
D           A        Bm     G  
People will stop and people stare, 
D           A        D   G  A
But it only rains on me


Chorus:
D                 G
Broken dreams and drowned parades, 
A               D           D/C#
Lovers who just slip away
Bm               G
Guess I learn to live that way, 
D                A
It only rains on me
D                 G
Seems to me there was a time, 
A                  D                 D/C#
It used to rain on friends of mine
Bm          G
Now I look around and find, 
D       A        D 
It only rains on me


I'll bet this won't hurt you much, 
You'll find someone soon enough
I'm the one that loses in love, 
It only rains on me
It's time we said goodbye and so, 
I'll just take my cloud and go
Don't worry you'll forget I know, 
It only rains on me

Chorus
