Day after day I'm more confused
But I look for the light through the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
Now I'm feeling the strain
Aint it a shame?
(Chorus)
Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll
And drift away
Beginning to think that I'm wasting time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside looks so unkind
I'm counting on you
To carry me through
(Chorus)
And when my mind is free you know melody can move me
And when I'm feeling blue 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
Your rhythm and rhyme and harmony
You've helped me along
You're making me strong
(Chorus)
(Repeat chorus 2 times)
Now now now won't you take me?
Oh oh take me
Fly high...
