[Verse 1]

D
The waters wide
D
It's deep and wide
D                         G
Its down a long and windy road
G            D            A          G     D
And everyone knows that a boy can't swim it

D
In narrows church
D
The white walled church
D                          G
Theyre singing that gospel song
G       D           A     G    D
bye and bye, i will see my king

[Chorus 1]

D                   
The clouds will break
D                   
And the pews shake
A                       G
And the choir softly cries
    D                  G        A   D
And its Georgia in the Spring of 1905                       

[Verse 2]

D
Ole Ty Cobb
D
You're dead and gone
D                           G
You had a game like a war machine
G                D               A     G      D
And through the great Hall of Fame you wander
D
In tigers field
D
A girl in heels
D                          G
She had a face like a magazine
G               D          A       G          D
And through the long metal stands she wandered

[Chorus 2]

D
The ball soared
D
The crowd roared
D                      G
The scoreboard sweetly hummed
    D               G          A       D
And tomorrow you'll surely know whose won

[Verse 3]

D
I'm on first
D
And you're on third
D                            G
And all the wolves are all between
G              D             A    G     D
And everyone's sure that the game is over
D
The catcher's hard
D
He's mean mean and hard
D                           G
And he nips at the batter's heels
G             D             A    G     D
And everyones sure that the game is over

[Chorus 3]

D
The ball soars
D
And the crowd roars
D                          G
And the scoreboard sweetly hums
    D               G          A       D
And tomorrow you'll surely know whose won

[Verse 4]

D
The waters wide
D
It's deep and wide
D                            G
It's a down a long and windy road
G            D            A          G    D
And everyone knows that a boy can't swim it

[Chorus 4]

D
The clouds break
D
And the pews shake
D                          G
And the preacher's feet do pound
G       D             G          A        D
As the rain beats the streets of Cooperstown
