Swollen Hand Blues was a b-side to the very final Oasis single, Falling Down
. Recorded at Abby Road studies, Falling Down reached number 10 on the singles chart. As usual, Noel Gallagher is chanelling The Beatles but referring to the Rolling Stones. The b-side was notable that it was the only song that was not a remix b-side that were included with the 3 singles from Dig Out Your Soul.An excerpt of the b-side song "Those Swollen Hand Blues" appears at the end of "Mucky Fingers", second track of Oasis' 2005 album Don't Believe the Truth.
Swollen Hand Blues Lyrics by Noel Gallagher
I can’t see the wood for the trees
Life is like a rollercoaster
I can’t find the birds or the bees
Hope they’re down the back of my sofa
Feeling like a rolling stone
Playing the guitar on my own
I’m the apple of my eye
If only I could keep myself sober I’d remind myself why
They stare at me wherever I go (there he is!!)
Why won’t everybody give over?
I wish I’d learnt to play piano
If only I could keep myself sober for more than a day
