Don`t let it break you down — текст песни (Graham Parker)

Intro: D G (4 times)

D G D G
Now don`t get bent out of shape, don`t start tearing out your hair
D G D G
One a sweet little angel, that stuff`s nowhere
D G D
G
When the bombs go off on Oxford Street and the kids beat up old people
D G D G
It`s just a soundtrack for your life it`s just everyday evil

CHORUS
Dm Bb Dm Bb
Don`t let it break you down Don`t let it break you down
Dm Bb D G D G
Don`t let it break you down

Some people are in charge of pens that shouldn`t be in charge of brooms
They have the nerve to rip up a man`s life in a paragraph or two
And the aeroplanes get hijacked and all the Americans get killed
And the children are addicted to a sugar-coated pill

CHORUS then E G D (three times)

Well you get sent out on the racetrack, you get spurs dug in your cheeks
You`ll see a winning post in the distance that you`ll never reach
And there`s a hole in the atmosphere gets bigger every time you
spray your hair
And someone`s drilling down through the earth just to see what`s there

CHORUS twice, then instrumental section with
grunts and soft guitar and then ends on D
