Intro

D5 / Cadd9 / / / D5 / F6sus2 / / / x2

Verse 1

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 ripping down the alley at dawn
And the morning paper flies
Dead man lying by the side of the road
With the daylight in his eyes

Chorus

Don't let it bring you down, it's only castles burning
Just find someone who's turning and you will come around.

Instrumental

D5 / Cadd9 / / / D5 / F6sus2 / / / x2

Verse 2

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 you're walking home alone

Chorus

Don't let it bring you down, it's only castles burning
Just find someone who's turning and you will come around.

Instrumental

D5 / Cadd9 / / / D5 / F6sus2 / / / x2

Chorus

D5 N.C. D5 G5
Don't let it bring you down, it's only castles burning
Just find someone who's turning and you will come around.
D5 / Cadd9 / / / D5 / F6sus2 / / /
D5 N.C. D5 G5
Don't let it bring you down, it's only castles burning
Just find someone who's turning and you will come around.
