{intro} 
 

            D5                    D5            D5  D5 
Well it's a strange old game, you learn it slow 
D5                        D5          D5  D5 
One step forward and it's back you go 
       D5                               D5                    D5  D5 
You're standing on the throttle, you're standing on the brake 
D5                      D5 
 In the groove till you make a mistake 
 

D5                    D5         D5                    G5 
 Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug 
D5             D5                     D5                       C5   -    G5 
 Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're just a fool in love 
D5                    D5                      D5                    G5 
 Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger baby, sometimes you're the ball 
D5             D5                     D5                      C5   -    G5 
 Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're gonna lose it all 
 
You gotta know happy, you gotta know glad 

Because you're gonna know lonely and you're gonna know sad 

When you're rippin' and a-ridin' and you're coming on strong 

You start slippin' and a-slidin' and it all goes wrong 
 
Because sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug 

Sometimes it all falls together baby, sometimes you're a fool in love 

Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger baby, sometimes you're the ball 

Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're gonna lose it all

{guitar solo} 
 
One day you got the glory, and then you got none 

One day you're a diamond, and then you're a stone 

Everything can change in the blink of an eye 

So let the good times roll before we say goodbye 
 
Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug 

Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're a fool in love 

Sometimes you're the Louisville Slugger baby, sometimes you're the ball 

Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're gonna lose it all 

Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug 

Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're a fool in love 

Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug 

Sometimes it all comes together baby, sometimes you're just a fool in love
