-'roundin' third and headed for home 
       C5                   G5 
It's a brown-eyed handsome man 
    C5             D5              G5 
Anyone can understand the way I feel. 
 
chorus 
  G5                                      C5       G5 
   Put me in Coach   I'm ready to play today 
G5                                        C5      B5 
   Put me in Coach  I'm ready to play today 
           A5          D5             G5 
   Look at me  I can be   Centerfield 
 
 
G5 
Well I spent some time in the Mudville Nine 
C5                    G5 
Watchin' it from the bench 
           G5                        E5                 D5    D5 
You know I took some lumps when the Mighty Case struck out 
G5       
So Say Hey Willie tell the Cobb 
    C5          G5                C5 
And Joe DiMaggio Don't say it ain't so 
D5                G5 
You know the time is now. 
 
chorus -----  intro 
      G5                                                     C5                 G5 
Got a beat-up glove a homemade bat  And a brand new pair of shoes 
G5                                         E5               D5     D5 
You know I think it's time  To give this game a ride 
G5                                                         C5             G5 
Just to hit the ball and touch 'em all   A moment in the sun 
     C5                D5                 G5 
It's gone and you can tell that one goodbye.
