E5Me, I'm thB5e Lonesome A5Kicker
E5Extra points, field B5goals at your sA5ervice
E5One might think it cB5omes with gA5lory
E5You might think difB5ferent after you listen to my sA5tory
E5My helmet is equB5ipped with a tiny fA5ace mask
E5What it possibly could protecB5t, I do not A5know
E5The other guys on the team like to mB5ake fun of my little A5shoulder pads
E5And also like to hide the speB5cial shoe I need to kick in thA5e snow
E5People think it's so eaB5sy to kick a field goal from thA5e 30 yard line
They E5forget to add seven yards for the sB5nap, and 10 more 'cause the
A5Goal posts are pushed way back
E5In 1974, the uprB5ights were right on the goal line
BuA5t some of the players were running into them, and getting hurt
E5So screw the kicker..B5. Who cares about A5the kicker?
A5But I kick that ball, and I pB5ray it goes straight
If it dE5oes the coach says "Good job, nC#5umber 8"
HA5e doesn't even know my nB5ame is Andre GrisumcE5ovitchlavinski, C#5Jr.
A5   B5(twice)
But that's the life I live... The Lonesome Kicker
E5Kickoffs can bB5e so very scA5ary
E5Especially, if the retuB5rner breaks on thrA5ough
E5And I'm the only guy on the playB5ing field left to tackle A5him
E5I don't want to get hurt, so I prB5etend to tie my sA5hoe
E5Once again, I'm ignoB5red by my teammates and all my coaA5ches
E5"Go back where you came B5from!" Scream 70A5,000 fans
E5Well, I know I could win their lovB5e back by catching a winning
A5Touch-down
E5But, unfortunately, I was borB5n with these very small A5hands
A5And I hope that the cameras don't come iB5n too close
Cause they migE5ht see the tears in my C#5eyes
As I A5sit on this bench made of cold-B5hearted wood
And the spliE5nters go deep in my tC#5highs
A5   B5(twice)
And the towel boy snickers as he walks by...The Lonesome Kicker
A5 B5 Another blocked kick
A5 B5 and everybody blames me
A5 B5 But it was the Left Guard
A5 B5 Who didn't pick up his man
A5 B5 Oh, why can't they see...?
E5In my home country, I could have been a minB5or league soccer A5player
E5But I came to America seeking fortB5une and seeking famA5e
E5I didn't realize that if I shankB5ed one, and bleA5w the point spread
E5Some drunk guys would push me into their hibB5achi after the A5game.
A5So I go home at night, cause I neB5ver get invited
To go driE5nking with the other C#5guys
AnA5d I sit in my chair, and I sB5oak my foot
As I eat a pE5late of cold FrencC#5h fries
And my A5wife's out with her quoteB5-unquote friend
And my sE5on can't look me in the C#5eyes
A5   B5(twice)
But that's the life I live...The Lonesome Kicker
A5Kicking for you
A5They took my snow shoe
B5They're going for two... (strum) A5 B5 E5
