Letra de
Dont Let It Bring You Down

La canción Dont Let It Bring You Down, compuesta por Neil Young, forma parte del álbum After the Gold Rush de 1970. La letra refleja una visión desolada y apocalíptica pero a la vez ofrece un consejo optimista: no dejes que los problemas te derriben. En varias entrevistas, Young mencionó que escribió la canción para mostrar contrastes entre la belleza y la decadencia, la esperanza y la desilusión.

Old man lying by the side of the road
With the lorries rolling by
Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load
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

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning
Find someone who's turning
And you will come around

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

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning just
Find someone who's turning

And you will come around

Don't let it bring you down
It's only castles burning just
Find someone who's turning
And you will come around


the emphasis here is _heavy_ on playability - the actual recorded version
is on piano - the closest we can get on guitar is the following:


or retune your guitar (to D) and change accordingly
