Standard (EADGBE)

She was the pride of the summer that year

She was my sweetheart, my lady

We walked to Black Rock and stopped by the Loch

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young

Chorus

Beat the drum, Beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, Lonely and Strong

x2

Across the bay I can still hear the strains

The two step loud and blaring

We walked hand and hand to the beat of the band

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young and daring

Chorus

I still hear the snares in the square

Colours ablaze in the evening

She was the pride of the summer that year

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young and daring
