Verse 1: 
 
       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  

{repeat intro} 
 
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 
 
{repeat Chorus}

Bridge: 
      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 
 
{repeat Chorus to fade - acappella first couple times}
