[Verse 1]
D                                A
    Day after day I'm more con - fused,
D                       E                         A
    Yet, I look for the light through the pouring rain,
D                                          A
    You know, that's a game that I hate to lose,
D Bm                             Bm C#m D
      And I'm feeling the strain,      ...ain't it a shame?

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

   'Beginning to think that I'm wasting time,
D                   E                  A
    I don't under - stand the things I do,
D                                   A
    The world outside looks so un - kind,

I wanna get lost in your rock'n'roll, and drift away,

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