Bob Schneider - The Bringdown
from his album Lovely Creatures (2009)
as interpreted by AMG (amga.co)
After like a decade of utilizing this site, this is my first tab I've made with the
intent of posting. I was very surprised no one else had worked this one out yet, but I'm
glad to contribute something! Please let me know if you interpret the song differently!
This is the long, drawn-out version; I'm sure the details can be improved and I'm not
working out the solo or outro right now. The whole song is muted, you'll have to listen
to it to figure out the subtleties.

Lyrics and Song Progression
(Intro)
(Verse 1)
Turn the corner
right into the hail
Think we oughta
set sail
Shoot for the shoreline
Fall into the hole
Watch your back
and let go
(Pre-Chorus 1)
It's like a whisper
never makes a sound
Come hold me
(Chorus)
Bring the bringdown
Bring the bringdown, Baby
(Verse 2)
Running up
beside of a wall
It's just an invitation
to fall
Risky business
A game for fools
Bend your heart
Break the rules
(Pre-Chorus 2)
Never know when
it'll come around
Come hold me
(Chorus)
(Middle-8)
Your smile
is a beautiful place
Take me with you
I wanna go there
Your love
What a beautiful waste
I take it with me
wherever I go
(bridge)
(Verse 3)
Take the air
that I breathe
Take away the world
at my feet
Take these wooden
hands of desire
Throw it all
into your fire
(Pre-Chorus 3)
The Devil's wings
Misery's gone
I come home
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
repeat chorus and fade out out.
