Don’t Let It Bring You Down : After The Goldrush : Neil Young
Intro:
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
Cold wind rippling down the alley at dawn
And the morning paper fly
Dead man lying at the side of the road
And the daylight in his eyes
Chorus:
Em7 D7
Don’t let it bring you down
C
It’s only castles burning
Bm7
Find someone who’s turning
A
And you will come around
G A C A G A C
Blind man running through the light of the night
With an answer in his hand
Come on down to the river of sight and
You can really understand
Red light flashin’ through the window in the rain
Can you hear the sirens moan?
White cane lying in the gutter in the lane
And you’re walking home alone
Chorus
A
Don’t let it bring you down
D
It’s only castles burning just
Bm7
Find someone who’s turning
A
And you will come around
G A C
A G A C
A
Don’t let it bring you down
D
It’s only castles burning just
Bm7
Find someone who’s turning
A
And you will come around
G A C
A D A D

or retune your guitar (to D) and change accordingly
