Key: A minor
Verse 1
Yes, I hear a symphony
Down through history
They say the beat's got a hold on me
Since the beginning of time
Set to rhythm and rhyme
From the palace to the street
Everybody that you meet
Says the beat's got a hold on me
And you know that I've tried to leave it
And I tell myself I don't need it
But then again the minute I hear it
It's a magnetic pull and
I'm in the spirit
Cause the beat's got a hold on me
Dm
Am
Yes, I hear a symphony
Everywhere I go on the radio
They say the beat's got a hold
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Here's a word to the wise,
Dm
Am
we've all been mesmerized
Joining in one by one,
we're moving in unison
The cradle started to rock,
the mouse ran up the clock
The clock struck one, two, three,
said the beat's gotta hold on me
The beat's gotta hold on me
Why is a mystery
Everywhere I go on the radio they say
From a mother's lullaby
Singing hush baby don't you cry
To every portal call
Every dance hall they say, yeah
The beat's got a hold on me
Dm
Am
Yes I hear a symphony
Down through history,
they say yeah, yeah
Sailors on the sea, sang nearer my
God to thee
Dm
Am
When they heard the trade winds blow,
they sang yo -ho -ho -ho
G
Am
The beat's gotta hold on me,
yes I hear a symphony
Everywhere I go on the radio they say
Soldiers sang, here we come,
as they marched to the fife and drum
Thunder of boots on the ground,
and the walls came tumbling down
The beat's got a hold on me,
yes I hear a symphony
Dm
Am
Down through history,
they say the beat's got a hold
Dm
Am
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Do the tooth feather, do the twist
Shake your tail feathers, do it like this
Play
La
Dm
Am
Bamba, play a tango, play a requiem,
Dm
Am
G
Am
cause I'm feeling low
Do the buck and wang, do the stroll,
play a mini -wrap, play some rock n' roll.
Dm
Am
Oh, oh, oh
Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
You
How did you like the song?
