Verse 1
[D(add9)] [A(add9)]
Day after day I'm more confused
[D(add9)] [E] [A(add9)]
So I look for the light in the pouring rain
[D(add9)] [A(add9)]
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
[Bm] [D(add9)]
I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame
Chorus
[A(add9)]
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
[E] [D(add9)]
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
[A(add9)]
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
[E] [D(add9)]
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Verse 2
Beginning to think that I'm wastin' time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
I'm countin' on you to carry me through
Chorus
[A(add9)]
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
[E] [D(add9)]
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
[A(add9)]
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul
[E] [D(add9)]
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Bridge
[Bm]
And when my mind is free
[D(add9)] [A(add9)]
You know a melody can move me
[Bm]
And when I'm feelin' blue
[D(add9)] [E]
The guitar's comin' through to soothe me
[D(add9)] [A(add9)]
Thanks for the joy that you've given me
[D(add9)] [E] [A(add9)]
I want you to know I believe in your song
[D(add9)] [A(add9)]
Rhythm and rhyme and harmony
[Bm] [D(add9)]
You help me along makin' me strong
