[Intro]
| A E | D E A | D E Asus4 A |
[Verse 1]
D A Day after day I'm more confused D E Yet I look for the light A Through the pourin' rain D A You know that's a game that I hate to lose Bm And I'm feeling the pain D Taking the strain
[Chorus]
A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away
[Interlude]
| D/A | D/A E/A A | D E Asus4 A |
[Verse 2]
D A Beginning to think that I'm wasting time D E A I don't understand the things I do D A The world outside is so unkind Bm I'm counting on you D To carry me through
[Chorus]
A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away
[Interlude]
| D/A | D/A E/A A | D E Asus4 A |
[Middle 8]
Bm And when my mind is free D A You know a melody can move me Bm And when I'm feeling blue D E The guitars coming through will soothe me
[Verse 2]
D A Thanks for the joy that you're given me D E A A7 I want you to know I believe in your song D A Your rhythm and rhyme and harmony Bm You carried me on D Keepin’ me strong
[Chorus] (bass and drums only)
A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away
[Chorus]
A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away A So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul E I want to get lost in your rock and roll D And drift away
[Outro]
