The Beat Of The Drum Chords & Lyrics - Thin Lizzy

[Em]Oooooh. Oooooh. Oooooh.

[Em]Joey he's a loaner he sits there on his own
They've got him locked in a cell
[Am]Oh mama mama mama
[Em]They don't treat your boy well
[Bm]Joey says something must be done
They're gonna [Am]blow your boy to kingdom come
To the [Em]beat of the drum, the beat of the drum

[Em]Joey's got the blues 'cause he's just read the news
'Bout his bad woman again
[Am]I don't think it's a rumour
I presume, [Em]she was messin' around on him
[Bm]Joey did something wrong
They're gonna [Am]blow that cat to kingdom come
To the [Em]beat of the drum, the beat of the drum

[Em]

Now [Em]Joey's got the blues 'cause he just heard the news
That he's not gonna get a second chance
[Am]He's been spending his time in prison
Now [Em]he's goin' for his last dance
[Bm]They're gonna blow him away to kingdom come
[Am]'Cause he done done her wrong
To the [Em]beat of the drum.

[Em]
