And the Terrible Twins came to call on you

The bigger they are baby

The harder they fall on you

And you you're always the same you persevere

On the same old pleasure ground

Oh and it never rains around here

It just comes pouring down

[Verse 2]
D
You had no more volunteers
Bm G
So you got profiteers for to help you out
D
Well with friends like that babe
A
Good friends you had to do without
D D/F# G A D
And now they've taken the chains and the gears
D/F# G
From off your merry-go-round
[Chorus]
D/F# G A G
Oh and it never rains around here
A D
It just comes pouring down
[Verse 3]
D
Now your new Romeo
Bm G
Was just a gigolo when he let you down
D
See the faster they are babe
A
The faster they get out of town
D G A D
Leaving make up stains and the tears
G
Of a clown
[Chorus]
Bm D/F# G A G
Yes and it never rains around here
A D
It just comes pouring down
[Bridge 1]
A Em A Em
Oh you were just a roller coaster memory
A Em A Em G-D
I don't know why I was even passing through
A Em A Em D-G
Saw you making a date with Destiny
A Em A Em
When he came around here asking after you
A Em A Em A Em
In the shadow of the Wheel of Fortune
A Em A Em G-D
You're busy trying to clear your name
A Em A Em D-G
You say 'I may be guilty yeah that may be true
A Em A Em A Em
But I'd be lying if I said I was to blame
A Em A Em
See we could have been major contenders
A Em A Em
We never got no money no breaks'
A Em A Em
You've got a list of all the major offenders
A Em A Em A G-D
You got a list of all their major mistakes
A Em A Em
And he just standing on the shadows
A Em A Em G-D
Yes and he smile that come-on smile
A Em A Em
Oh I can still hear you say as clear as the day
A Em A Em
'I'd like to make it worth your while'
[Verse 3]
D
Oh but it's a sad reminder
Bm G
When your organ grinder has to come to you for the rent
D
And all you've got to give him
A
Is the use of your side-show tent
D G A D
Yes and that's all that remains of the years
G
Spent doing the rounds
[Chorus]
Bm D/F# G A G
Yes and it never rains around here
A D
It just comes pouring down
[Bridge 2]
A Em A Em
Now you know what they say about beggars
A Em A Em
You can't complain about the rules
A Em A Em
And you know what they say about beggars
A Em A Em D-G
You know who's the first to blame his tools
A Em A Em
You never gave a damn about who you pick up
A Em A Em G-D
And leave layin' bleedin' on the ground
A Em A Em
You screw people over on the way up
A Em A Em
Because you thought that you were never coming down
A Em A Em
And he'll take you out in Vaudeville Valley
A Em A Em G-D
With his hand up smothering your screams
A Em A Em D
And he'll screw you down in Tin Pan Alley
A Em A Em
In the city of a billion dreams
[Outro]
A Em | A Em repeat till fade
