I belAieve there is a road
I must follow no maDtter
If it takAes me to a place
that is difficult to Dfathom
Just reC#mmind me there's a virute
in acceBmpting
All thC#me ways of life
though sometimes they are Bmwrong
As long as the beat goes Aon
ADs long as the beat goes Aon
Pour yoAur sorrow into me
when the dark times are luDrking
I will Aalways lend an ear
when you're down and nothing's wDorking
If you Anever get to be
who you really want to Dbe
Maybe tAhen we're the same
Maybe then you're just like Dme
Cause C#mthat's why we need to
help and guide each otBmher
CausC#me without a map to guide
we don't belBmong
As long as the beat goes Aon
ADs long as the beat goes Aon
As Dlong as the beat goes
on Fand on and oGn and on and on
It Agoes
on Fand on and on and Gon and on and Fon and on and on Gand on
OAoh woah(As long as the beat goes on)
ODoh woah (As long as the beat goes on)
If Ayou never get to be
who you really want to Dbe (As long as the beat goes on)
MaAybe then we're the same
Maybe then you're just likDe me
As Along as the beat goes
oFn and on and on Gand on and on and Fon and on and on Fand on.

I believe there is a road

I must follow no matter

If it takes me to a place

that is difficult to fathom

C#m

Just remind me there's a virute

in accepting

C#m

All the ways of life

though sometimes they are wrong

As long as the beat goes on

D A

As long as the beat goes on

Pour your sorrow into me

when the dark times are lurking

I will always lend an ear

when you're down and nothing's working

If you never get to be

who you really want to be

Maybe then we're the same

Maybe then you're just like me

C#m

Cause that's why we need to

help and guide each other

C#m

Cause without a map to guide

we don't belong

As long as the beat goes on

D A

As long as the beat goes on

As long as the beat goes

F G

on and on and on and on and on

It goes

F G F G

on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

Ooh woah(As long as the beat goes on)

Ooh woah (As long as the beat goes on)

If you never get to be

who you really want to be (As long as the beat goes on)

Maybe then we're the same

Maybe then you're just like me

As long as the beat goes

on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on.
