Notes about this song:

  • Not checked in detail.
  • Standard tuning (EADGBE)
  • The open Bb tuning included below could be from a tape that was recorded at the wrong speed. On the other hand, Neil has started doing some songs in lower keys, so it is possible that he decided to drop it another notch.

Verse:
654321
000230
Old man lying by the side of the road

          654321
          000560
With the lorries rolling by

654321
000780
Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load

        654321              654321
        X88760              577555
And the buildings scrape the sky

654321
000230
Cold wind rippin' down the alley at dawn

        654321
        000560
And the mornin' paper flies

654321
000780
Dead man lying by the side of the road

            654321       654321
            X88760       577555
With the daylight in his eyes

Chorus:
                      654321                654321
                      550030                032010
Dont let it bring you down its only castles burning

                        654321                  654321
                        X22000                  000230 
Just find someone who's turning & you will come around

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 the gutter in the lane
If you're walking home alone
