Drift Away (Alternative Version)

[Verse 1]

Day after day I'm more confused

As I look for the light through the pouring rain

You know that's a game I hate to lose

And I'm feelin' the strain, ain't it a shame?

[Chorus]

Oh, give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

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

[Verse 2]

Beginning to think that I'm losin' my mind

I don't understand the things that I do

The world outside looks so unkind

Now I'm countin' on you, to carry me through

[Chorus]

Oh, give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Well give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

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

[Bridge]

When my mind is free

No melody can move me

When I'm feelin' blue

Guitars are comin' through to soothe me

Thanks for the joy that you've given me

I want you to know I believe in your song

Rhythm and rhyme and harmony

You help me along, you're always makin' me strong

[Chorus]

Give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

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

Give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

Oh, give me the beat, boys to soothe my soul

I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

[Outro]

Well, won't you help me? Won't you help me? Won't you help me?

Drift away

Well, well
