Intro B F#/B E/B F#/B B F#7sus B 

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

     B 
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
  F#/A#                                     E/G# 
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away 
     B 
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
  F#                                        E 
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away 

Interlude:  B F#/B E/B F#/B B F#7sus B
 

  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 
I'm countin' on you   to carry me through  

     B 
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
  F#/A#                                     E/G# 
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away 
     B 
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
  F#                                        E 
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away  

Interlude:  B F#/B E/B F#/B B F#7sus B 
 
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 
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 
Rhythm and rhyme and harmony 
C#m                  E 
You help me along   makin' me strong 

Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away 
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
