[Verse 1]

             
Day after day 

            
I'm more confu

sed
             
Yet I look for

              
 the light thr

              
ough the pouri

    
ng rain
             
You know that'

              
s a game that 

           
I hate to lose
            
And I'm feelin

             
g the strain, 

ah ain't it a 

shame


[Chorus]


Give me the be

at boys and fr

ee my soul
             
I wanna get lo

k and roll and

 
 drift away

Give me the be

at boys and fr

ee my soul
             
I wanna get lo

 drift away
(Riff 2)               (Riff 1)
  Won't you take me away


[Verse 2]

             
Beginning to t

              
hink that I'm

I don't unders

              
tand the thing

    
s I do
             
The world outs

              
ide looks so u

 
nkind
            
And I'm counti

          
ng on you, you

through

  You know a m

            
elody can move

 me

   When I'm fe

elin' blue
             
  The guitar's

              
 coming throug

     
h to soothe me

Thanks for the

ee my soul
  E                                        D         (Riff 2)
