[C]
[Am] [D] [G]
Saturday [D] summers [Em]
when I was a kid
[C] We'd run to the schoolyard [Am] and here's what [D] we did
[C] We'd pick [D] out the captains and [C] we'd choose up the [D] teams
[G] It was always [D] a measure [Em] of my self-esteem
[C] Cause the fastest, the strongest [Am] played shortstop in first
The last ones they picked [D] were the worst
I [F]
never needed to ask, it was sealed
[Am] I [D] just took up my place in right field
[Em] [G] Playing right [D] [Em] field, it's easy you know
[C]
You can be awkward, [Am]
you can be slow
[C] That's why I'm [D] here in right field
[G] Just watching [D] the [G]
dandelions grow
[F] [G]
[C] [G] Playing right field [Em] can be lonely and dull
[C]
Little leagues never have [Am] lefties [D] that pull
[C] I dream [D] of the queen, [C] they hit [D] one my [G] way
They never [D] did, [Em] but still I would pray
[C] That I'd make a fantastic [Am]
catch on the run
And not lose the ball in [D] the sun
And [F]
then I'd awake from this long reverie
[D] And pray that the ball never came out to me
[G] Here in right [D] [G] field, [Em] it's easy you [Am] know
[C] You can be awkward, [Am] you can be slow
That's [C] why I'm here [D] in right field
[C] Just watching [D] the [G] dandelions grow
Off [C] [G]

[G] in the [D] distance, [Em] the game's dragging on
[C] There's strikes on the batter, [Am] some runners [D] are on
[C] I don't know [D] the inning, [C] I've forgotten the [D] score
[G] The whole [D] team is yelling, [Em] and I don't know what for
[C]
Suddenly [Am] everyone's looking at me
My mind has been [D] wandering, what could it be?
[F] They point to the sky and I look up above
[Am] [D] And the baseball falls in through [F#] my [E] glove
[N] [D]
Here [G] in right field, [Em] it's important you know
You [C] gotta know how to catch, you [Am] gotta know how to throw
[C] That's why I'm [D] here in right field
[C]
Watching [D] the [G]
