It goes something like. "Give me the ____ to free my soul, I want to get lost in rock and rock... and drift away." That's some of the chours, but does anyone know who sings it or what the name is?

Did some searching on the net, never heard the song but I think it's

"Drift Away" - Dobie Gray,Grateful Dead

Day after day
I'm more confused
So I look for the light
In the pouring rain
You know that's a game
That I hate to lose
I'm feelin' the strain,
Ain't it a shame

Oh, give me the beat, boys,
And free my soul
I wanna get lost
In your rock and roll
And drift away
Oh, give me the beat, boys,
And free my soul
I wanna get lost
In your rock and roll
And drift away

Beginning to think
That I'm wastin' time
I don't understand
The things I do
The world outside
Looks so unkind
I'm countin' on you
To carry me through

And when my mind is free
You know a melody
Can move me
And when I'm feelin' blue
The guitar's comin' through
To soothe me
Thanks for the joy
That you've given me
I want you to know
I believe in your song
Rhythm and rhyme
And harmony
You help me along
Makin' me strong

Yeah, good song. I have had it stuck in my head for about 3 days now and did not know who sung it.

I also saw that Uncle Kracker just released a version w/ Dobie Gray as well. It sounds very true to the original as well.
