| The Beat Goes On by Sonny and Cher | ||||||
| F The beat goes on, the beat goes on. F7 F Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain. F7 A# F La de da de de...la de da de da. #1. F Charleston was once the rage, uh huh. F7 F History has turned the page, uh huh. The mini skirts the current thing, uh huh. F7 F Teenybopper is our newborn king, uh huh. CHORUS: F The beat goes on, the beat goes on. F7 F Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain. F7 A# F La de da de de...la de da de da. #2. F The grocery store's the super mart, uh huh. F7 F Little girls still break their hearts, uh huh. F And men still keep on marching off to war. F7 F Electrically they keep a baseball score. CHORUS: F The beat goes on, the beat goes on. F7 F Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain. F7 A# F La de da de de...la de da de da. #3. F Grandmas sit in chairs and reminisce. F7 F Boys keep chasing girls to get a kiss. F The cars keep going faster all the time. F7 Bums still cry,' Hey buddy, have you got a dime?' CHORUS: F The beat goes on, the beat goes on. F7 F Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain. F7 A# F La de da de de...la de da de da. |
