Hollies - Don't Let Me Down
INTRO:    G     D       C  G  
The sun is overshadowed by the Dpresence of the moonC  
Night time has fallen, she'll be coming home soonG  
Leave the door wide open, ah, so Dshe won't need a keyC  
                                                             G-C  
Lock it behind you baby, draw the blinds so no one can see
CHORUS:
There's only one thing on my GmindBm  
CDon't let, don't let me GdownBm  
EmDon't let__C____, don't let me dGown
My Dfeelings are near the grCoundG  
Silence is golden, ah, but for Dme there's just one choiceC  
The music of your laughter, rippling of your voice
GFreshness of the evergreen, ah, Dfades as if too shyC  
                                                       G-C  
Can't compete with your beauty, couldn't if it tried
CHORUS:
There's only one thing on my GmindBm  
CDon't let, don't let me GdownBm  
EmDon't let__C____, don't let me dGown
My Dfeelings are near the grCoundEm  
BRIDGE:
Let's build something to climb onC  
Making the show a live oneBm  
No need for make-up, let's be Emreal
Give all in what you're givingC  
Making life worth livingBm  
Being alive's how you should Emfeel
And Cdon't let, don't let me dGown
My Dfeelings are near the grCoundG  
Don't want the sun to be shining, raising his Deyebrows at the moon
Saying, "I Ctold you so, she wouldn't show", well, don't speak too soonG  
I hear her footsteps walking oDn the outer floor
         C                                              G-C  
Well, it could be, I don't know, I don't know for sure
CHORUS:
There's only one thing on my GmindBm  
CDon't let, don't let me GdownBm  
EmDon't let__C____, don't let me dGown
My Dfeelings are near the grCound
OUTRO:    (## fade to end ##)
DCome on back, Ccan't live without you
DCome on back, (I need you, I need you, I) Ccan't live without you
DCome on back, (I want you, I want you, I) Ccan't live without you
