Drift Away

B E B F#7
       E                                              B
          Day after day I'm more confused
          Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain
          You know that's a game that I hate to lose
       C#m                                      E
          And I'm feeling the strain - ain't it a shame

                                  B
                           Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
                             F#7                                                        E7
                           I wanna get lost in your rock'n'roll and drift away
                           Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
                           I wanna get lost in your rock'n'roll and drift away
                                                                                                              E7
                                                                                                          B F#7 B

          I'm beginning to think I'm wasting time
          I don't understand the things I do
          The world outside looks so unkind
          And I'm counting on you to carry me through

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

                                         C#m
                                            And when my mind gets free
                                         E                                        B
                                            You know a melody can move me
                                         C#m
                                            And when I'm feeling blue
                                         E                                                    F#
                                            The guitar's coming through to soothe me

          Thanks for the joy that you've given me
          I want you to know I believe in your song
          And rhythm and rhyme and harmony
          You've helped me along, making me strong

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

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

                           Now, now, now - oh won't you take me
                           Oh~ho, take me
                                             *Jam Outro*   verse (repeat)
