[B] [Ebm] Straight down the middle, [Ab] it [Db] went straight down the middle
Then [Ebm] it started [C] to hook just a wee [F] wee bit
[Bbm] That's when my caddy [Gb] lost [F] sight of it
[Bbm] That little white pellet [Eb] has never been found [Ab] to this [F] day
[Bb] But it [Bbm] went straight down the middle [Db] like they [E] say
[Ebm] Whack [Fm] down the [Bb] fairway, [Fm] it [Bb] went smack down the [Fm] fairway
[Bbm] Then [Ebm] it started [C] to slice just a smidge [F] off line
[Bbm] It headed for two but [C] it bounced [F] off nine
[Bbm] My caddy says long as [Eb] you're still in this state you're [Fm] okay
[Gbm] Yes it [Bbm] went straight down the middle [Ab] quite [Db] a way
The sun [Gb] was [Ebm] never brighter, the green [Db] was never greener
And [Bbm] I was never keener [Eb] to play
[Ab] I heard [Bbm] it sing down the middle, [Ab] it [Bb] went sing down the middle
[Db] [Ebm] Oh the life of [C] a golfer is not [F] all gloom
[Bbm] There's always the lies in the locker [Gbm] room
[Db] And I'm in my glory [Eb] when wrapped in a towel [Ab] I say
[Bb] That it [Ebm] went straight down the middle [Db] today
[Ab] [Ebm]
[Db]
Oh the [Gb] life of a golfer is [F] not all gloom
Though they [Bbm] charge you for listening in the locker [Gbm] room
[Ab] But I'm in my [Db] glory when [Eb] wrapped in a towel I [F] say
[Ab] That [Bb] it [Ebm] went straight down the middle
[Ab] Where it [Fm] wound up is a [Bb] riddle
But it [Ebm] went straight down the middle
[Bbm] All the way
[Ebm] [Bbm] [Bb]
