Tab
DON’T LET IT BRING YOU DOWN
By Neil Young
Key: A


6    6   6  6  -5  5*  -5  -3  -3  -3 
Old man ly-in’ by the side of the road
-3    -3  6   6    -5   5  -53
With the lor-ries roll-ing by,
-5    -5   -5   -5  -5   5    -5   -5  5   -5
Blue moon sink-ing from the weight of the load
-3   -3   6   -5    4     -3 -53
And the build-ing scrape the sky,
6     6    6   6    -5   5* -5  -3 -3  -3
Cold wind rip-ping down the al-ley at dawn
-3   -3  6    6  -5  5  -5 3  
And the morn-ing pa-per flies,
-5    -5 -5  -5 -5  5   -5  -5  5   -5
Dead man ly-ing by the side of the road
-3    -3  6    6    5  -3  -5
With the day-light in his eyes.

6     -5   5  -5    5   -5
Don’t let it bring you down
-3   6  -5  5   -5   3    -3
It’s on-ly cas-tles burn-ing,
7     6   -5    5    -5   -3
Find some-one who’s turn-ing
-3   6   -5    4  -3  -3
And you will come a-round.

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 lights flashing 
through the window in the rain,
Can you hear the sirens moan? 
White cane lying in a gutter in the lane,
If youre walking home alone.

-3     -3 -4  4*   -5   6
Don’t let it bring you down
3    -6* 6  -5   4*  -2*  -3
It’s on-ly cast-les burn-ing,
-2*    6   -5   4*  -3    -2* -3
Just find some-one who’s turn-ing
-2*  -5  5*   -4 -3  -3
And you will come a-round.

 
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
