I remember sittinʼ at that house

Livinʼ room couch

Thinkinʼ no way them boys wouldnʼt win

Kinda like you and me that day
Chorus: D A Bm7
We got close, but close doesnʼt cut it
G D
Had a good run, to end up with nothinʼ
A Bm7
But a 3x5 that you hide in a drawer
G D
We swung for the fences and came up short
A
Yeah, you win some, you lose some,
Bm7
It ainʼt always home runs
G D
And thatʼs just the way life plays
A Bm7
If we were a team, and love was a game
G D
We wouldʼve been the ʼ98 Braves
