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
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
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
(Repeat and Fade)
