About the Song
   Other avaliable versions of this music sheet: Version 1  Version 2  
"Sunny Came Home" is a Grammy Award-winning folk-rock song by American musician Shawn Colvin. It is the theme song to her 1996 concept album A Few Small Repairs, and quickly became a hit when it was released as a CD single on June 24, 1997. The song tells the story of Sunny, "a frustrated housewife who torches her own home." (The cover art on the single shows images of a woman and a burning house.) It is one of several "story songs" on A Few Small Repairs, a method of songwriting Colvin began experimenting with while writing for the album. The title of the song comes from the opening lyrics. The song's calming and upbeat music, fronted by a distinctive mandolin strum, contrasts sharply with the destructive lyrics, particularly the haunting bridge: "Count the years; you always knew it / Strike a match; go on and do it". At the end of the song, the lighting of a match can briefly be heard,.    Download this sheet!
