[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
I coach my son like my daddy did me
G
Try my best not to yell or scream
C
Just some quiet words in the dugout
C
When he thought he let his team down
G
Told him, "Missing seven outta ten
G
Don't get your number in the Hall of Fame
C
Yeah, it hurts like hell, but don't blame yourself
C
It's all part of the game"
[Pre-Chorus]
D
So if it's 0 and 2 with two outs
C
In the bottom of the ninth
D
You might hit it, you might miss it
C
Either way, you'll be just fine
[Chorus]
G
'Cause it's more than a game, more than a pastime
Em7
It'll change you if you let it
C
More than some dirt on the front of your uniform
D
It's memories you can't forget
Em
It's more than swinging for the fence
Bm7
It's hard work and discipline
C G/B Am7 D
It's winning and losing and learning why they ain't the same
G
It's more than a game
[Verse 2]
G
We got in that truck, I said, "Listen, son
G
I get right where you're coming from
C
'Cause I been in your cleats
G
Just know that ain't your last swing
G
Just like life, you're gonna see more curves than you count
C
It ain't about the hits or how many you get
N.C.
It's never giving up when you're down"
[Chorus]
G
'Cause it's more than a game, more than a pastime
Em7
It'll change you if you let it
C
More than some dirt on the front of your uniform
D
It's memories you can't forget
Em
It's more than swinging for the fence
Bm7
It's hard work and discipline
C G/B Am7 D
It's winning and losing and learning why they ain't the same
G Em7 D C
It's more than a game
[Bridge]
D
So next time it's 0 and 2 with two outs
C
In the bottom of the ninth
D
You might hit it, you might miss it
C
Either way, you'll be just fine
[Chorus]
G
'Cause it's more than a game, more than a pastime
Em7
It'll change you if you let it
C
More than some dirt on the front of your uniform
D
It's memories you can't forget
Em
It's more than swinging for the fence
Bm7
It's hard work and discipline
C G/B Am7 D
It's winning and losing and learning why they ain't the same
G
It's more than a game
[Outro]
Em7 C D G
Mm, it's more than a game
I coached my son like my daddy did me
Tried my best not to yell or scream
Just some quiet words in the dugout
When he thought he let his team down
Told him, "Missing seven outta ten
Don't get your number in the Hall of Fame
Yeah, it hurts like hell, but don't blame yourself
It's all part of the game"
So if it's 0 and 2 with two outs
In the bottom of the ninth
You might hit it, you might miss it
Either way, you'll be just fine
'Cause it's more than a game, more than a pastime
It'll change you if you let it
More than some dirt on the front of your uniform
It's memories you can't forget
It's more than swinging for the fans
It's hard work and discipline
It's winning and losing and learning why they ain't the same
It's more than a game
We got in that truck, I said, "Listen, son
I get right where you're coming from
'Cause I've been in your cleats
Just know that ain't your last swing
Just like life, you're gonna see more curves than you count
It ain't about the hits or how many you get
It's never giving up when you're down"
It's more than a game, more than a pastime
It'll change you if you let it
More than some dirt on the front of your uniform
It's memories you can't forget
It's more than swinging for the fans
It's hard work and discipline
It's winning and losing and learning why they ain't the same
It's more than a game
So next time it's 0 and 2 with two outs
In the bottom of the ninth
You might hit it, you might miss it
Either way, you'll be just fine
'Cause it's more than a game, more than a pastime
It'll kill you if you let it
More than some dirt on the front of your uniform
It's memories you can't forget
It's more than swinging for the fans
It's hard work and discipline
It's winning and losing and learning why they ain't the same
It's more than a game
Mmm, it's more than a game
