Take Me Down (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Someday I’m gonna pack up
And then I’m goin’ back up
To that place where sentimental feelings arouse

Where the grass is so green
And the air is so clean
That when the wind is right you can even smell the cows

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
I’ve got to get back
To that city today

If you’re new in town
Then you’ll wanna look around
But you don’t know where to begin
Well, there’s Bubble Gum Alley
And the local car rally
Not to mention the toilets at Madonna Inn

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
I’ve got to get back
To that city today

It’s not much of a hassle
To drive up to Hearst’s Castle
And it’s not too far from Pismo Beach or Morro Rock

You can visit downtown at your leisure
Because for your shopping pleasure
The stores never close down until five o’clock

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
I’ve got to get back
To that city today

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
Where time shifts into neutral
And idles away

Take me down (take me down)
To that good old SLO town
I’ve got to get back
To that city today

Take Me Down (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Been waitin’ at these crossroads
Forever and a day
On a guy to buy my soul
I spend all night and day
How much harder can I play?
You know I gave my life to Rock n’ Roll
Here we go

Mama begged me please
Yes, she got down on her knees
Said: You’ll burn in that Mississippi sun
But I’m the only one that’s standing here
So, mama, don’t you have no fear
I’m either last or I’ve already won
Here I go

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Won’t you take me down?

Standin’ at the crossroads, a dried up pen in hand
The conversation went like this
Tell me your desire, why you pulled me from the fire
And we’ll seal the deal with a kiss

Said: I wanna raise the dead, find a note that I can shred
On my walls I scrawl my gods
Don’t care what happens when I die
As long as I’m alive all I wanna do is rock, rock, rock

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Won’t you take me down?

Oh, sign with the devil, sign with the devil
Sign with the devil, oh!
Sign with the devil, sign with the devil
Sign with the devil, oh!

Sign with the devil, sign with the devil
Sign with the devil, oh!
Sign with the devil, sign with the devil
Sign with the devil, oh!

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Won’t you take me down?

Take me down (sign with the devil, sign with the devil, sign with the devil, oh)
Take me down
Take me down (sign with the devil, sign with the devil, sign with the devil, oh)
Won’t you take me down?
Down

Take me down, to the underground
Won’t you take me down, to the underground
Why oh why, there is no light
And if i can’t sleep, can you hold my life
And all i see is you
Take my hand, i lost where i began
In my heart i know all of my faults
Will you help me understand
And i believe in you
You’re the other half of me
Soothe and heal…
When you sleep, when you dream,
I’ll be there if you need me, whenever i hear you sing…
There is a sun, it’ll come, the sun, i hear them call me down
I held you once, a love that once, and life had just begun
And you’re all i see…
And trumpets blew, and angels flew on the other side
And you’re all i see, and you’re all i’ll need
There’s a love that god puts in your heart

I’m a one man line at the twenty-four hour store
I’m in a town that reminds me of my home town streets
I roamed the aisles a thousand miles from what i was looking for
A familiar face that would smile at me sweetly

(if you)
Take me down
To where i’m whole
Where everybody knows me
Deep as a soul can go
If you take me down
I gotta know
Did you really know me,
Deeply,
As a soul can go?

We’d drive up the canyon to watch the stars fall down
Watch them turn off the lights on the church down on second street
There’s jack’s old man, he’s still the only cop in town
He’s patrolling the sidewalk on the graveyard beat

And everybody needs a place to call home
A roof over head a bed for dreams of their own
I’ve never been so lonely as when i told you i was leaving
This time i’m really leaving

Words and music by j.p. pennington and mark gray

Fly away with me tonight.
Take me on a one-way flight in your lovin’ arms, and ev’rything’s gonna be alright.
You’re the one who took my hand when no one else could understand.
You’re the one who moves me like nobody else can.

Chorus:
Take me down where i wanna be.
Turn around, the man who lives inside of me.
Take me down and love me all night long.
Hold me close and make me strong.
Take me down. take me down tonight.

In your eyes i see the light.
It’s your emotions glowin’ bright.
So keep the fires burnin’, and let it warm me through the night.
You can be a part of me, ‘cause you’re what love was meant to be.
You and me, baby, we’ll set the flame inside free.

Chorus

You don’t have to stay forever
Let’s just put our hearts together, share another night in ecstasy.
We know that it’s feelin’ better ev’ry time we get together.
Maybe love was meant for you and me. whoa, take me down

Where i wanna be.
Turn around, the man who lives inside of me.
Take me down and love me all night long.
Hold me close and make me strong.
Take me down. take me down tonight.

Take me down tonight. take me down tonight. take me down tonight.

Seems I’ve lingered too long in the darkness
unlock the door, turn the light on and wait.
I should know better than to rest on a promise
but this body before you has seen too much pain.

Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I’m waiting for you
just give me a sign, oh please don’t fail me now.

It’s at this time we feel the emotion,
nothing is wasted, nothing is lost.
I’m sure that I’ve been here before sometime
some bridges are reached but never are crossed.

Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I’m waiting for you
just give me a sign, oh please don’t fail me now.

Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I’m waiting for you
just give me a sign, oh please don’t fail me now.

Don’t fail me now
‘cos it’s out of my control.
I’m coming with you,
I’m right beside you,
oh feet don’t fail me now.

Seems I’ve lingered too long in the darkness
unlock the door, turn the light on and wait.
I should know better than to rest on a promise
but this body before you has seen too much pain.

Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I’m waiting for you
just give me a sign, don’t let me go.
Take me down, take me down to the water,
take my hand, learn me all I should know.
Here I am, I’m waiting for you
just give me a sign, oh feet please don’t fail me now.

You aren’t what i love
You aren’t what i need
You aren’t what i love
You aren’t what i need
What i need
Don’t let them take me down there
You aren’t what i love
You aren’t what i see
You hate from above
You become what i need what i need
Don’t let them take me down.
