Back in the 70s this song came out and the song was a great song and old Dobe
Gray did a great job singing it but the thing everybody flipped over was the
guitar part in there and I'm gonna try to sing it if anybody goofs up it's
gonna be me and it's gonna be his [A] fault.
[Bm] So I this has remained one of my best
favorite songs so we'll do the best I can okay?

[D] [C#m] [A] [Em] [A]
[D] [A] Day [E] after day I'm more [Am] confused [F#m] I [D] look [E] for the light through the [A] pouring [D] rain
[A] [D] You know that's a game that I'd [A] hate to lose [D]
[A] [Bm] The feeling, the pain, [D] ain't it a [A] shame?
Oh, gimme the beat boys and free my [E] soul I wanna get lost in your rock and [D] roll
And drift away.

And drift away.
[A] [D] [A]
[E] [A] [D] Beginning to think that I'm [A] wasting time
I [D] [E] don't understand [A] the things I do [D] The world outside looks so [A] unkind
[Bm] And now I'm counting on you [D] to carry me [A] through
Oh, gimme the beat boys and free my [E] soul I wanna get lost in your rock and [D] roll
And drift away.
[A] Gimme the beat boys and free my [E] soul I wanna get lost in your rock and [D] roll
And drift away.
[A] [D] [A] [Bm] [A]
[Bm] When my mind [D] is free And though the melody [A] it moves me baby
[Bm] And when I'm [E] feeling [D] blue The guitar's coming [E] through to soothe me
[D] Thanks for the joy that you've [A] given me I [Em] want you to know I [A] believe in your song
[D] Rhythm and rhyme and [A] harmony You [Bm] help me along
[D] You've given me [A] strength Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
[E] I wanna get lost in your rock and [D] roll And drift away
Gimme
[A] the beat boys and free [E] my soul I wanna get lost in your rock and [D] roll
And drift away.
Gimme [Bm] [D] [A]
the beat boys and free my soul [E] I wanna get lost in your rock and roll
[E] And drift [D] away.

Well, Lord, I get lost in your rock and roll
[D] and drift away.
