[B] [F#] [E] [B] [B]
Day after day I'm more confused [C#] Yet [E] I look for the light through the pouring [C#m] rain
[B] You [E] know [B] that's a game that I hate to lose [C#m] [B] And [A] I'm feeling the strain
[E]
Ain't it a shame?
[B] Oh, give me the beat boys and free my [F#] soul I won't get lost in your rock and [E] roll
And drift away
[B] Oh, give me the beat boys and free my [F#] soul I won't get lost in your rock and roll
[E] And drift away
Beginning [B]
to think that I'm wasting [C#m] time [B] I [F#] don't [B] understand the things I [C#m] do
[B] [A] [E] The world [B] outside looks so [G#m] unkind [F#] [C#m] And I'm counting on you [E] to carry me through
[B] Oh, give me the beat boys and free my [F#] soul I won't get lost in [F#m] your rock and [E] roll
And drift away
[B] Oh, give me the beat boys and free my [F#] soul I won't get lost in your rock and roll
[E] And drift away
And [B]
[B]
[C#m] when my mind is [E] free You know a melody [B] can move me
[C#m] And when I'm feeling [E] blue The guitar's coming [Bm] through to soothe [F#] me
[E] Thanks for the joy that [D#] you've given me [C#] [B] I want you to [C#] know I [B] believe in your song
[F#] [E] In rhythm and rhyme and [Bm] harmony
[C#] You've helped me along
[E]
Making me strong [B] Oh, give me the beat boys and free my [F#] soul
I won't get lost in your rock and [E] roll And drift away
Give [N] me the beat boys and free my [F#] soul I won't get lost in your [E] rock and roll
And drift away
Oh, [B] give me the beat boys and free my [F#] soul I won't get lost in your rock and [E] roll
And drift away
[B] Give me the beat boys, I'm free my [F#] soul I wanna get lost in your rock and [E] roll and drift away
Na [B] na na, won't you take me?
Oh, [F#] take me
