Don't Bring Me Down

Intro
(Heavy stomping drum loop beat)
(Punchy rhythm guitar riff enters)
(Grand piano and bass kick in)

Verse 1
You tell me that you're headin' for the city lights
You say you're gonna party through the summer nights
You look so fine, you think you're gonna rule the town
Well, look out baby 'cause you're gonna fall right down
Don't bring me down

Chorus
Don't bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
Oo-hoo, don't bring me down
Don't bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
Oo-hoo, don't bring me down
(Grroossh!)

Verse 2
You're rollin' in a fast car, lookin' for a thrill
You spent up all your money and you're runnin' still
You made a little circle with your fancy friends
You think the good times never gonna reach the end
Don't bring me down

Chorus
Don't bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
Oo-hoo, don't bring me down
Don't bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
Oo-hoo, don't bring me down
(Grroossh!)

Bridge
(Upbeat handclaps and heavy bass groove)
You're runnin' around, you got nowhere to go
You think you're the star of the whole damn show
Well, step back, step back, look at the wall
You're ridin' real high, but you're gonna fall!

Synth Solo
(Vintage Moog synth solo over driving rock drums and crunching guitar)

Verse 3
You're callin' up my phone at three o'clock at night
You wanna fix the wrong and try to make it right
I'm lookin' out the window and the sun comes up
I think I had enough, yeah, you can fill your cup
Don't bring me down

Chorus
[Explosive chorus with stacked falsetto harmonies]
Don't bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
Oo-hoo, don't bring me down
Don't bring me down, no, no, no, no, no
Oo-hoo, don't bring me down
(Grroossh!)

Outro
Don't bring me down, no, no, no
Don't bring me down!
(High falsetto vocal layers over driving rock beat)
(Heavy guitar riffs fading out)
Fade Out
