[Verse 1]
F                            C
  Day after day I'm more confused 
F                    G                          C
  Yet I look for the light through the pourin' rain 
F                                       C
  You know that's a game that I hate to lose 
Dm
  And I'm feelin' the strain
F
  Aw, ain't it a shame
 
 
[Chorus]
    C
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
   G
I want to get lost in your rock and roll 
    F
And drift away 
    C
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
   G
I want to get lost in your rock and roll 
    F
And drift away 
 
[Post-Chorus]

  Beginnin' to think that I'm wasting time 
F                G               C
  I don't understand the things I do 
F                               C
  The world outside looks so unkind
Dm
  And I'm counting on you 
F
  You can carry me through 
 
 
[Chorus 2]
    C
Oh, give me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
  G
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll 
     F
And drift away 
C
Gimmie me the beat, boys, and free my soul 
  G
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll 
     F
And drift away

[Bridge]
Dm
   And when my mind is free
F                         C
    You know a melody can move me 
Dm
    When I'm feeling blue 
F                                    G
    The guitar's coming through to soothe me

    Awww, you're makin' me strong
