[Verse 1]
            D
I remember sittin' at
            A/C#

 Bm
Livin' room couch
          G
Thinkin' no way them boys
          D
wouldn't win
                        A/C#
Between them big three pitches,
  Bm
 Andruw and Chipper
            G
It's gonna be hard to
                   D
keep up with the Jones's
                   A/C#
But as fate would have it,
       Bm
 that Atlanta magic
     G                       D
Got put out by them damn Padres

[Chorus]
                    A/C#
We got close, but close
         Bm
doesn't cut it
       G
Had a good run, to end
          D
up with nothin'
                    A/C#
But a 3x5 that you hide
       Bm
in a drawer
                  G
We swung for the fences
               D
 and came up short
                         A/C#
Yeah, you win some, you lose some,
     Bm
 it ain't always home runs
      G                        D
And that's just the way life plays
               A/C#
If we were a team, and
  Bm
love was a game
    G                      D
We would've been the '98 Braves

[Instrumental]
