A rainy day produces a rainy song. So it is that I saw my broken umbrella being dried and was inspired to write a song titled "Broken Umbrella". So I took out my guitar and started strumming (what else?) the G major key chords and came up with the tune (which I had to try hard to remember as I had no lyrics). Took me a little more time to write in the lyrics (usually my melody & lyrics more or less "appear" simultaneously) as I tried to tie the words to the rain and umbrella, but I still managed to finish it within 1-2 hours. A rather short song.
Lyrics
Rain falls, I cry
Standing in the field of clouds
A washing down of sorrow
A broken umbrella is all I have
Chorus:
And I can't stay dry anymore
So I'm drenched in rain that soaks me through
Outro:
And the sun, seems so far away to shine through
Oh where, oh where is my rainbow

So I'm drenched in rain that soaks me through

And the sun, seems so far away to shine through
Oh where, oh where is my rainbow
