Intro: [Gm7][C9][Gm7][C9][Gm7][C9][Gm7][C9][D7]

1. Ev'ryone sings, [Gm7] "Home of the brave, and land of the [A7sus4] free" [D7]
You've had twenty [Gm7] wins and one save, now you're up [A7sus4] against [D7] me
[Am7] How can I keep [D7] control of my nerves? the [Gm9] way you wind-up
When you [C9] throw me those curves? I [A7sus4] hear him yell, "strike"
And [D7] it's a good call, It's [Gm7] so hard to keep my [C9] eyes on the ball

Chorus: On the [Gm7] baseball [C9] love is just like [Gm7] baseball [C9]
All it is is [Gm7] baseball [C9] love is just like [Gm7] baseball [C9] [D7]

2. You have played [Gm7] with me like a pawn, for most of the [A7sus4] night [D7]
How'd you get your [Gm7] uniform on, so perfectly [A7sus4] tight? [D7]
[Am7] You strike me out twice, I [D7] singled but died
Then you [Gm9] made me pop up, by sneakin' [C9] inside
I'm [Am7] gonna change [D7] that sneer to respect, make your [Gm9] eyes open wide
When you [C9] feel connect to the baseball

Chorus: On the [Gm7] baseball [C9] love is just like [Gm7] baseball [C9]
All it is is [Gm7] baseball [C9] love is just like [Gm7] baseball [C9] [D7]

[Am9][D][Gm7][C9]-[Am9][D7]-[Gm7][C9]-[Gm7][C9][D7]

3. Here I am [Gm7] behind in the night, the count's 3 [A7sus4] and [D7] 2
End the game like [Gm7] Beethoven's Ninth, is what I must [A7sus4] do [D7]
So [Am7] now that we're here [D7] alone in the dark
I'm [Gm7] gonna send this, right [C9] out of the park
[Am7] If I was you I'd leave it [D7] alone, cCause I'm [Gm7] tearin' round third
[C9] Slidin' towards home, [Gm7] tearin' round third, [C9] slidin' towards home

Chorus: On the [Gm7] baseball [C9] love is just like [Gm7] baseball [C9]
All it is is [Gm7] baseball [C9] love is just like [Gm7] baseball [C9] [D7]
