Never Let Me Down
(words & music by Martin L. Gore)
Before I transcribe this I have to acknowledge VIKTOR HOLUBEK (email:
holubek@managr.fm.uniba.sk). I figured out the keyboard configuration from
his chord progressions right here at the same site. All I am just doing is
adding on to his input.
The intro is:
G riff
E -3--1-3---3-3--3--1-3-1-3-||
B --------------------------||
G --------------------------||
D --------------------------||
A --------------------------||
E --------------------------||
The Riff 1 chords and lines are:
Dm C F D#
E ---------1---|---------1---|-------------|----------------|
B --3--1-3---3-|--3--1-3-----|---------1---|----------------|
G -------------|-----------2-|--2--0-2---2-|--2--2--0-2-0---|
D -------------|-------------|-------------|--------------3-|
A -------------|-------------|-------------|----------------|
E -------------|-------------|-------------|----------------|
The Riff 2 chords (featured at the end of the chorus and mostly at the end of
the verse when the song goes into the Cm, Bb, Gm, F progression):
Dm C G riff
E ---------------|--8--6-8-----|-3--1-3---3-3--3--1-3-1-3-||
B --3--1-3--3-1--|----------8--|--------------------------||
G ---------------|-------------|--------------------------||
D ---------------|-------------|--------------------------||
A ---------------|-------------|--------------------------||
E ---------------|-------------|--------------------------||
For the chorus (the Cm part), the keyboard plays:
Cm Bb Gm F
E -----8-----8-----|-----6-----6-----|-----------------|-----------3---3-||
B ---8---8-----8---|---6---6-----6---|-----8-----8-----|-----6---6---6---||
G -5-------5-----5-|-3-------3-----3-|---7---7-----7---|---5---5---------||
D -----------------|-----------------|-5-------5-----5-|-3---------------||
A -----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
E -----------------|-----------------|-----------------|-----------------||
Those are basically all the keyboard lines. The lyrics are:
Dm C G riff
I~m taking a ride with my best friend
Dm C G riff
I hope he never lets me down again
Dm C
He knows where he~s taking me
Gm Bb
Taking me where I want to be
Dm C G riff
I~m taking a ride with my best friend
Riff 2: Dm C G riff
Cm Bb
We~re flying high
Gm F
We~re watching the world pass us by
Cm Bb
Never want to come down
Gm F
Never want to put my feet back down on the ground
Riff 1: Dm C F D#
Dm C G riff
I~m taking a ride with my best friend
Dm C G riff
I hope he never lets me down again
Dm C
Promises me I~m as safe as houses
Gm Bb
As long as I remember who~s wearing the trousers
Dm C G riff
I hope he never lets me down again
Riff 2: Dm C G riff
Cm Bb
We~re flying high
Gm F
We~re watching the world pass us by
Cm Bb
Never want to come down
Gm F
Never want to put my feet back down on the ground
Dm C A Gm
Dm C A Gm
Dm C
Never let me down
A Gm
Never let me down
Dm C
Never let me down
A Gm
Never let me down
Dm C
See the stars they~re shining bright
A Gm
Everything is alright tonight...
For playing guitar, I highly suggest you to play the ending chords in this
manner, as it does add gloom to the song:
Dm C A Gm
E -5--|-x--|-5--|-6--|
B -6--|-5--|-5--|-8--|
G -7--|-5--|-6--|-7--|
D -7--|-5--|-7--|-5--|
A -5--|-3--|-7--|----|
E ----|----|-5--|----|
And that is it.
