Lyrics

[Intro]
| B | - | F# | B |

[Verse 1]
E                          B
 Day after day I'm more confused
E                   F#                       B
 Yet I look for the light in the pouring rain
E                                          B
 You know that's a game that I hate to lose
C#m
   And I'm feelin' the strain,
E
 ain't it a shame

[Chorus]
    B
Oh, give me the beat boys,
and free my soul
  F#                                         E
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
    B
Oh, give me the beat boys,
and free my soul
  F#                                         E
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
B F# B

[Verse 2]
E                                    B
 Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time
E             F#                   B
 I don't understand the things I do
E                             B
 The world outside looks so unkind
C#m                      E
   So I'm countin' on you to carry me through

[Chorus]
    B
Oh, give me the beat boys,
and free my soul
  F#                                         E
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
     B
Yeah Give me the beat boys,
and free my soul
  F#                                         E
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
B F# B

[Bridge]
C#m
   And when my mind is free
E                      B
 You know a melody can move me
C#m
   And when I'm feelin' blue
E                               F#
 The guitar's comin' through to soothe me

[Verse 3]
E                                     B
 Thanks for the joy that you've given me
E                  F#                  B
 I want you to know  I believe in your song
E                                B
 The rhythm and rhyme and harmony
C#m                 E
   You help me along makin' me strong

[Chorus]
    B
Oh, give me the beat boys,
and free my soul
  F#                                         E
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
B
Give me the beat boys, and free my soul
  F#                                         E
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
    B
Oh, give me the beat boys,
and free my soul
  F#                                         E

          B
Hey, hey, give me the beat boys,

  F#                                         E
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
                             B
Na na na, won't ya, won't ya take me

[Outro]
       F#     E
Oh oh, take me
