The nearer we got to An - dorra, the sun set on the left,
Em D/F# G A
The more the mountains pointed to the black clouds in the west,
Em D/F# G A
Hey, there's a darkness turned the sky that's not the night,
Em D/F# G A
Hey, there's a raincloud there that's shutting out the light!
Em C B B7/A
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
Em/G B7/F# Em
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain----!
Em D/F# G A
As soon as we reached Barce - lona the cold wind touched the beach,
Em D/F# G A
And the sun we'd left in London was way beyond our reach,
Em D/F# G A
"Hey," I said, "Darling, it seems a waste of time,
Em D/F# G A
Hey, all we do is sit, and drink our Spanish wine!"
Em C B B7/A
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
Em/G B7/F# Em
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain----!
Em D/F# G A
In all the tales of Gra - nada... they tell of Islam's run,
Em D/F# G A
They lived beneath a Moorish Lord, be - neath the Moorish sun,
Em D/F# G A
Oh, how we yearned to turn our faces to that glare,
Em D/F# G A
But down from the mountains came the rain to soak our hair!
Em C B B7/A
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
Em/G B7/F# Em
When you run for the sun, you catch the rain------!
Em C B B7/A
What do I tell you? It's... always the same,
Em/G B7/F# 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)
