Gm7
Ev'ryone sings, "Home of the brave
A7(4) D7(#9)
And land of the free"
Gm7
You've had twenty wins and one save
A7(4) D7(#9)
Now you're up against me
Am7 D7+5
How can I keep control of my nerves?
Gm9
The way you wind-up
C9
When you throw me those curves?
A7(4)
I hear him yell, "strike"
D7+5
And it's a good call
Gm7 C9
It's so hard to keep my eyes on the ball
Gm7 C9
On the baseball
Gm7 C9
Love is just like baseball
Gm7 C9
All it is is baseball
Gm7 C9 D7(#9)
Love is just like baseball
Gm7
You have played with me like a pawn
A7(4) D7(#9)
For most of the night
Gm7
How'd you get your uniform on
A7(4) D7(#9)
So perfectly tight?
Am7
You strike me out twice
D7+5
I singled but died
Gm9
Then you made me pop up
C9
By sneakin' inside
Am7 D7+5
I'm gonna change that sneer to respect
Gm9
Make your eyes open wide
C9
When you feel connect to the baseball
Gm7 C9
To the baseball
Gm7 C9
Love is just like baseball
Gm7 C9
All it is is baseball
Gm7 C9
Love is just like baseball
Gm7
Here I am behind in the night
A7(4) D7(#9)
The count's 3 and 2
Gm7
End the game like Beethoven's Ninth
A7(4) D7(#9)
Is what I must do
Am7
So now that we're here
D7+5
Alone in the dark
Gm7
I'm gonna send this
C9
Right out of the park
Am7 D7+5
If I was you I'd leave it alone
Gm7
'Cause I'm tearin' round third
C9
Slidin' towards home
Gm7
Tearin' round third
C9
Slidin' towards home
Gm7 C9
Baseball
Gm7 C9
Love is just like baseball
Gm7 C9
All it is is baseball
Gm7 C9
Love is just like baseball
