Verse 1
[Gm7]
Ev'ryone sings, "Home of the brave
[A7sus4] [D7+9]
And land of the free"
[Gm7]
You've had twenty wins and one save
[A7sus4] [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?
[A7sus4]
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
Chorus
[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
Verse 2
[Gm7]
You have played with me like a pawn
[A7sus4] [D7+9]
For most of the night
[Gm7]
How'd you get your uniform on
[A7sus4] [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
Chorus
[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

Verse 3
[Gm7]
Here I am behind in the night
[A7sus4] [D7+9]
The count's 3 and 2
[Gm7]
End the game like Beethoven's Ninth
[A7sus4] [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
Chorus
[Gm7] [C9]
Baseball
[Gm7] [C9]
Love is just like baseball
[Gm7] [C9]
All it is is baseball
[Gm7] [C9]
Love is just like baseball
