      G                                      C              G
Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!
      G                   Bm               D      Dsus4 D   Dsus4   D  
We’re born again, there’s new grass on the field.
  G                                           C                   G
A-roundin’ third, and headed for home, it’s a brown-eyed handsome man;
   C             D              G       Gsus4 G   Gsus4   G
Anyone can understand the way I feel.

    G                               C      G
Oh, put me in, coach - I’m ready to play today;
G                               C       Em
Put me in, coach - I’m ready to play today;
        A         D        G         Gsus4  G        Gsus4     G  
Look at me, I can be centerfield.

        G                                   C                   G
Well I spent some time in the mudville nine watchin it from the bench;
           G                        Bm                 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D  
You know I took some lumps when the mighty case struck out.
   G                                C          G
So say hey willie, tell ty cobb and joe dimaggio;
      C                      D                G       Gsus4 G   Gsus4   G
Don’t say "it ain’t so", you know the time is now.

Chorus                  repeat intro 

      G                                  C                 G
Got a beat-up glove, a homemade bat, and brand-new pair of shoes;
           G                  Bm               D   Dsus4 D  Dsus4   D  
You know I think it’s time to give this game a ride.
        G                                  C             G
Just to hit the ball and touch ’em all - a moment in the sun;
C                           D             G       Gsus4 G   Gsus4   G
(pop) it’s gone and you can tell that one goodbye!
