     G 
Well beat the drum and hold the phone 
    C               G 
The sun came out today 
      G                  Em               D      D7 
We're born again there's new grass on the field 
   G 
A-'roundin' third and headed for home 
       C                   G 
It's a brown-eyed handsome man 
    C             D              G 
Anyone can understand the way I feel. 
  G                                      C       G 
   Put me in Coach   I'm ready to play today 
G                                        C      Bm 
   Put me in Coach  I'm ready to play today 
           Am          D7             G 
   Look at me  I can be   Centerfield

G 
Well I spent some time in the Mudville Nine 
C                    G 
Watchin' it from the bench 
           G                        Em                 D    D7 
You know I took some lumps when the Mighty Case struck out 
G       
So Say Hey Willie tell the Cobb 
    C          G                C 
And Joe DiMaggio Don't say it ain't so 
D                G 
You know the time is now. 
 
chorus -----  intro 
 
      G                                C                 G 
Got a beat-up glove a homemade bat  And a brand new pair of shoes 
G                               Em               D     D7 
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 
It's gone and you can tell that one goodbye.
