[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!
