[D#m] [C#]
You see, when I grew up in New Jersey, we had a couple of
ponies of mine that used to think we were going to rule the universe.
[D#]
What happened one [C#] day is we grew [D#m] up,
got [C#] out of high school.
[D#] One of them actually [G#] got a scholarship to
go [C#] play baseball.
[D#]
And me, I was in a bar [C#] playing,
writing songs.
[D#]
[C#] And he got a phone call one day.
[D#]
It was his [C#] girlfriend.
She said she was [D#m] pregnant.
[C#] Now, [D#] he had to hang up those cleats.
[C#] He had to retire the [D#m] baseball glove.
[C#] And all these years [D#] later, I guess all he has [C#] left is that dream.
So like a long distance [D#] dedication,
[C#]
the names have been changed [D#] to protect the innocent.
[C#] [D#m] Just for [G#] anyone who ever felt like [C#] Tom and Jim.
[D#] [C#]
[D#m]
Tell me if you were going to touch
me.

And [D#m] that's what life for [B] us.
[C#] We'll give it a shot.
