Great song and simple too. [Intro] G
G                 D              G
I still hear the snares in the square

G                     Em   D
Colours ablaze in the evening

G                           D     Em
The air was still down the stormy hill

      C                   Am   D
It's good to be young and daring
[Chorus]
          G              D
Beat the drum, beat the drum

          Em       C           
Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

          G
Beat the drum
[Verse 2]
G                 D              G
  I still see the blood on the knees

G                           Em  D
   The camans swing without warning

G                           D        Em
   The lads in white at the speed of light

      C                   Am   D
   It's good to be young and daring
[Chorus 2]
          G              D
Beat the drum, beat the drum

          Em       C           
Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

          G
Beat the drum
[Verse 3]
G                         D              G
   Across the bay I can still hear the strains

G                          Em  D
   The two step loud and Blair-ing

     G                           D      Em
 We walked hand in hand to the accordian band

         C                   Am   D
   It's good to be young and daring
[Chorus 3]
          G              D
Beat the drum, beat the drum

          Em       C           
Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

          G
Beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum
[Verse 4]
G                         D              G
   She was the pride of the summer that year

G                            Em  D
   She was my sweetheart, my lady

     G                           D              Em
 We walked the black rock and we stopped by the loch

         C                   Am   D
   It's good to be young and daring
[Chorus 5]
          G              D
Beat the drum, beat the drum

          Em       C           
Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

          G              D
Beat the drum, beat the drum

          Em       C           
Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

          G              D
Beat the drum, beat the drum

          Em       C           
Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

          G
Beat the drum,
[Outro] G
