[Verse]
G C G
Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!
G Bm D D4 D D4 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 G4 G G4 G
Anyone can understand the way I feel.
[Chorus]
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 G4 G G4 G
Look at me, I can be centerfield.
[Verse]
G C G
Well I spent some time in the mudville nine watchin it from the bench;
G Bm D D4 D D4 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 G4 G G4 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 D4 D D4 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 G4 G G4 G
(pop) it’s gone and you can tell that one goodbye!
