The nearer we got to An - dorra, the sun set on the left,
The more the mountains pointed to the black clouds in the west,
Hey, there's a darkness turned the sky that's not the night,
Hey, there's a raincloud there that's shutting out the light!
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain----!
As soon as we reached Barce - lona the cold wind touched the beach,
And the sun we'd left in London was way beyond our reach,
"Hey," I said, "Darling, it seems a waste of time,
Hey, all we do is sit, and drink our Spanish wine!"
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain----!
In all the tales of Gra - nada... they tell of Islam's run,
They lived beneath a Moorish Lord, be - neath the Moorish sun,
Oh, how we yearned to turn our faces to that glare,
But down from the mountains came the rain to soak our hair!
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
Em
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain------!
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
Em
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain------!
Chi - ca, chi - ca, ta! Chi - ca, chi - ca, ta!
Chi - ca, chi - ca, ta! Chi - ca, chi - ca, ta! (repeat)

The n[Em]earer we got to An - d[D/F#]orra, the s[G]un set on the l[A]eft,
[Em] The more the mountains p[D/F#]ointed to the bl[G]ack clouds in the w[A]est,
[Em] Hey, there's a da[D/F#]rkness turned the s[G]ky that's not the night, [A]
[Em] Hey, there's a rai[D/F#]ncloud there that's shut[G]ting out the l[A]ight!
W[Em]hat do I t[C]ell you? It's..[B]. always the [B7]sam[A]e,
When you [Em/G]run for the[B7] su[F#]n, you catch the rain-[Em]---!
As s[Em]oon as we reached Barce - [D/F#]lona the co[G]ld wind touched the be[A]ach,
And the [Em]sun we'd left in L[D/F#]ondon was w[G]ay beyond our re[A]ach,
[Em] "Hey," I said, "D[D/F#]arling, it se[G]ems a waste of ti[A]me,
[Em] Hey, all we[D/F#] do is sit, and dr[G]ink our Spanish w[A]ine!"
W[Em]hat do I t[C]ell you? It's..[B]. always the [B7]sam[A]e,
When you [Em/G]run for the[B7] su[F#]n, you catch the rain-[Em]---!
In [Em]all the tales of Gra - [D/F#]nada... they t[G]ell of Islam's r[A]un,
They l[Em]ived beneath a Mo[D/F#]orish Lord, be - ne[G]ath the Moorish s[A]un,
[Em] Oh, how we ye[D/F#]arned to turn our fa[G]ces to that gl[A]are,
But d[Em]own from the mou[D/F#]ntains came the r[G]ain to soak our h[A]air!
W[Em]hat do I t[C]ell you? It's..[B]. always the [B7]sam[A]e,
[Em/G] [B7] [F#] [Em]
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain------!
W[Em]hat do I t[C]ell you? It's..[B]. always the [B7]sam[A]e,
