Never Let Me Down
	(words & music by Martin L. Gore)


Before I transcribe this I have to acknowledge VIKTOR HOLUBEK (email:
[email protected]).  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---|----------------|

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

G

For the chorus (the 
Cm
 part), the keyboard plays:

  
Cm
                
Bb
                
Gm

 -----8-----8-----|-----6-----6-----|-----------------|-----------3---3-||
B
 ---8---8-----8---|---6---6-----6---|-----8-----8-----|-----6---6---6---||

 -5-------5-----5-|-3-------3-----3-|---7---7-----7---|---5---5---------||
D
 -----------------|-----------------|-5-------5-----5-|-3---------------||

C

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.
