Along with the mp3. 
 
 
 
 
  D 
I met a good friend a long time ago 
        D/C# 
I could make it to the cooler shade 
      D 
But I ended up burying myself alive 
   D/C# 
To prove that I could use a spade 
        G 
I could be the next, I could be the first 
      D 
A few people even know my name 
      G 
I'm a big league hitter with a hell of a glove 
         D                   A 
But they never put me in the game 
 
G A Bm But I-I-I'm gonna be alright G A D If I leave here tonight
And I told a good friend a long time ago I was gonna make it to the Hall of Fame But she left me for a Hollywood movie star She liked the way he spelled his name I could be the best, I could be the worst But I'm gonna tell you one thing's for sure To those who fight for a life that's a special flavor the shelter can never know Chorus Bridge: Bm G Mmmmmmmmmm, oohhhooohhh Bm G I try to find a little humor everywhere I go Bm G Mmmmmmmmmm, hey-hey E7 A A little humor is the only thing that keeps me sane Oh and I begged my poor mom a long time ago Not to hate me for the choice I made And a minute in the sun's no price to pay For a second in the cooler shade I could be the one but I'm on the run So don't come a knockin' on my door I'll be swingin in a hammock strung 'tween the trees Well I did it and I told you so Closing Chorus: Bm G I'm gonna be alright Bm G I'm gonna be alright G A Bm I-I-I'm gonna be alright G A D If I leave here tonight
