Verse 1
(G major) Just a (A major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) boy and his dreams
And a girl in her teens
And a plan in the front of his (A major) mind
He said, some (D major) way, I'm gonna play
In the big lake someday
Stick with me just to (A major) wait and see in (D major) time
(A major) Well, (D major) she (A major) waited a while
But (D major) no longer a child
She got tired of chasing the (A major) wind
She (D major) left him one spring,
triple -A second string,
And went home to (A major) marry a (D major) friend. (A major) (D major)
(G major) She (D major) (A major) learned to (D major) cook and
learned to stitch,
While he learned to pitch a little bit better
each year. (A major)
And the (D major) two boys she raised
were so full of praise
For the hero that (A major) they held so dear (D major)
An (A major) (D major) d they (A major) yelled, come and see
Mom here (D major) on
TV
It's the last and biggest game of the (A major) year
The count is (D major) full, the score is tied
Ninth inning, bottom side
He'll strike him out, just wait an (A major) d see
They both (D major) cheer
An (A major) (G major) d (A major) sure enough (D major) there he stood
like he always said he would
He was doin' what he always wanted (A major) to
That
New
York (D major) teen he loved to hate, was standing at the plate,
and only she knew his (A major) dream was coming (D major) true
He (A major) (D major) (A major) proudly stood his crown,
out (D major) there on the mound, facin' the world all alone (A major)
And (D major) the family wondered why
there were tears in
Mama's eyes
Cause she cried when the
(A major) Yankees came (D major) home
Mama cried (A major) when the
Yankees came (D major) home
