E
You got me runnin' goin' out of my mind,
You got me thinkin' that I'm wastin' my time.
                A                 E
Don't bring me down, no no no no no,
      G                           D
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
                E
Don't bring me down.

You want to stay out with your fancy friends
I'm telling you it's gotta be the end
Don't bring me down
No, no, no, no, no, ooh-ooh
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down

Don't bring me down

Chorus:
Don't bring me down, Bruce
Don't bring me down, Bruce
Don't bring me down, Bruce
Don't bring me down

What happened to the girl I used to know
You let your mind out somewhere down the road
Don't bring me down
No, no, no, no, no, ooh-ooh
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down

You're always talkin' 'bout your crazy nights
One of these days you're gonna get it right
Don't bring me down
No, no, no, no, no, ooh-ooh
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down

Chorus:
Don't bring me down, Bruce
Don't bring me down, Bruce
Don't bring me down, Bruce
Don't bring me down

You're looking good just like a snake in the grass
One of these days you're gonna break your glass
Don't bring me down
No no no no no no no no no, ooh-ooh
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down

You got got me shaking, got me running away
You got me crawling up to you every day
Don't bring me down
No, no, no, no, no, ooh-ooh

I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down down d-down d-down down down
I'll tell you once more before I get off the floor
Don't bring me down
