Scars & Stitches

(Dobie Gray)

Day after day I'm more confused
Yet I look for the light
In the pourin' rain
You know it's a game that I hate to lose
Feeling the pain
Takin' the strain

So, 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 I'm wasting time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside's so unkind
Counting on you
To carry me through

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

When my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
When I'm feeling blue
Guitar's coming through to soothe me

Thanks for the joy you're given me
Want you to know I believe in your song
Your rythm and rhyme and harmony
Carry me on
Makin' me strong

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

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

Drift away

Na, na, now won't ya
Won't ya take, oh ha ..take me
