Beat the Drum
-Great Big Sea
Tabbed by; TapdancingJayses

I saw that there was no tab for this awesome song by GBS, and that made me sad. :
( It's pretty simple. Enjoy!

G                 C            G
I still hear the snares in the square
G                     D
Colours ablaze in the evening
G                          Em
The air was still down the stormy hills
C                         D
It's good to be young and daring

G                        C           G
She was the pride of the summer that year
G                         D
She was my sweetheart, my lady
G                           Em
We walked to Black Rock and stopped by the Loch
C                         D
It's good to be young and daring
C
It's good to be young

[Chorus]
G              D
Beat the drum, Beat the drum
Em                C          D
Like a heartbeat, Lonely and Strong
x2

G                    C              G
Across the bay I can still hear the strains
G                     D
The two step loud and blaring
G                              Em
We walked hand and hand to the beat of the band
C                         D
It's good to be young and daring

[Chorus]

G                C             G
I still hear the snares in the square
G                     D
Colours ablaze in the evening
G                        Em
She was the pride of the summer that year
C                         D
It's good to be young and daring 

[Chorus] - a cappella (optional) with bodhran
