Willy "Tea" Taylor - Brand New Game
verse:
My brother moved aDway
searching for the shining light
now he's working in a rGestaurant
and he's cooking every nDight
well me i stuck aDround
just living in this town
i've got so many fGriends here
and it keeps me aDround
i'm dreaming every dDay
hell, i've drempt my life away
like when i was a bGoy
i'd go catchin for deDtroit
my brother was a yDankee
my buddy whitey was a met
we'd all win the pGennant
with a game winning hDit
now whitey's diggin dDitches
and i'm unemployed
we grounded out on wGishes
far from being little bDoys
chorus:
and F#7we never tGhought
life would get so rDeal
cuz F#7we always tGhought
life was a baseball fDield
and F#7even if we lGost
well we'd never complDain
there's aF#7lways tomGorrow
and a brand new gDame
verse:
My old man didn't sDee us
quite as often as he'd like
but he taught us how to cGatch and throw
and a baseball way of lDife
like how to take a gDrounder
when it's bouncing off your face
and picking up that bGaseball
still gun him out at first bDase
my old man he's an oDutfielder
he grew up on a farm 
catching flyballs in the Gpasture
he's got a cannon for an aDrm
he taught me how to lDove life
just by playin in a game
he's still dreamin bout the gGiants
shaggin balls with willie mDays
chorus:
and F#7he never tGhought
life would get so rDeal
cuz F#7he always tGhought
life was a baseball fDield
and F#7even if he lGost
well he'd never complDain
there's aF#7lways tomGorrow
and a brand new gDame
verse:
i got a boy of my oDwn
and he'll grow up to a man
and i'll teach him about bGaseball
so he'll undersDtand
how to take a pitch and sDtrike out
and get right back at the plate
crack one up the mGiddle
and go 3 for 4 that dDay
chorus:
and F#7he'll never tGhink
life will get so rDeal
cuz F#7he'll always tGhink
life's a baseball fDield
and F#7even if he lGoses
well he'll never complDain
there's aF#7lways tomGorrow
and a brand new gDame

Willy "Tea" Taylor - Brand New Game

verse:

My brother moved away

searching for the shining light

now he's working in a restaurant

and he's cooking every night

well me i stuck around

just living in this town

i've got so many friends here

and it keeps me around

i'm dreaming every day

hell, i've drempt my life away

like when i was a boy

i'd go catchin for detroit

my brother was a yankee

my buddy whitey was a met

we'd all win the pennant

with a game winning hit

now whitey's diggin ditches

and i'm unemployed

we grounded out on wishes

far from being little boys

chorus:

F#7 G

and we never thought

life would get so real

F#7 G

cuz we always thought

life was a baseball field

F#7 G

and even if we lost

well we'd never complain

F#7 G

there's always tomorrow

and a brand new game

verse:

My old man didn't see us

quite as often as he'd like

but he taught us how to catch and throw

and a baseball way of life

like how to take a grounder

when it's bouncing off your face

and picking up that baseball

still gun him out at first base

my old man he's an outfielder

he grew up on a farm

catching flyballs in the pasture

he's got a cannon for an arm

he taught me how to love life

just by playin in a game

he's still dreamin bout the giants

shaggin balls with willie mays

chorus:

F#7 G

and he never thought

life would get so real

F#7 G

cuz he always thought

life was a baseball field

F#7 G

and even if he lost

well he'd never complain

F#7 G

there's always tomorrow

and a brand new game

verse:

i got a boy of my own

and he'll grow up to a man

and i'll teach him about baseball

so he'll understand

how to take a pitch and strike out

and get right back at the plate

crack one up the middle

and go 3 for 4 that day

chorus:

F#7 G

and he'll never think

life will get so real

F#7 G

cuz he'll always think

life's a baseball field

F#7 G

and even if he loses

well he'll never complain

F#7 G

there's always tomorrow

and a brand new game
