D                           A
  Day after day I'm more confused

So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I want to get lost in your rock and roll

I want to get lost in your rock and roll

And drift away

 I don't understand the things I do

  The world outside is so unkind
Bm
  I'm counting on you
D
  To carry me through

So give me the beat, boys, and free my soul

I want to get lost in your rock and roll

  The guitars coming through will soothe me
