Don't Let It Bring You Down

Neil Young

 

A    G    A    C    (x2)

 

A                  Old man lying by the side of the road

Am7            With the lorries rolling by

D                  Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load

F   Em7        And the buildings scrape the sky      

 

A                  Cold wind rippling down the alley at dawn

Am7            And the morning paper fly

D                  Dead man lying at the side of the road

F   Em7        And the daylight in his eyes

 

D7                Don't let it bring you down

C                  It's only castles burning

Bm7             Find someone who's turning and you will come around

 

A    G    A    C    (x2)

 

A                  Blind man running through the light of the night

Am7            With the answer in his hand

D                  Come on down to the river of sight and

F   Em7        You can really understand

 

A                  Red light flashin' through the window in the rain

Am7            Can you hear the sirens moan?

D                  White cane lying in the gutter in the lane

F   Em7        And you're walking home alone

 

D7                Don't let it bring you down

C                  It's only castles burning

Bm7             Find someone who's turning and you will come around

 

A    G    A    C    (x2)

 

A                  Don't let it bring you down

D                  It's only castles burning just

Bm7             Find someone who's turning and you will come around

 

A    G    A    C    (x2)
