D
Little Boy, in a baseball hat
       A                     G        D
Stands in the field with his ball and bat
(D)
Says I am the greatest player of them all
         A                          G             D
Puts his bat on his shoulder and he tosses up his ball


        A
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
G                      D
Swings his bat all the way around
    A
The world's so still you can hear the sound
    G                            D
The baseball falls to the ground


(D)
Now the little boy doesn't say a word
      A                  G       D
Picks up his ball, he is undeterred
(D)
Says I am the greatest there has ever been
    A                         G         D
And he grits his teeth and he tries it again

        A
And the ball goes up and the ball comes down
G                      D
Swings his bat all the way around
    A
The world's so still you can hear the sound
    G                            D
The baseball falls to the ground


   Bm                   G
He makes no excuses, he shows no fear
        D                   A
He just closes his eyes and listens to the cheers


D
Little boy, he adjusts his hat
      A                   G      D
Picks up his ball, stares at his bat
(D)
Says I am the greatest the game is on the line
       A             G        D
And he gives his all one last time


        A
And the ball goes up like the moon so bright
G                   
Swings his bat with all his might
        A
And the world's so still as still can be
        G                                       D
And the baseball falls, and that's strike three


(D)
Now it's supper time and his mama calls
       A                        G       D
Little boy starts home with his bat and ball
(D)
Says I am the greatest that is a fact
         A                     G          D
But even I didn't know I could pitch like that
(D)
Says I am the greatest that is a fact
         A                     G          D
But even I didn't know I could pitch that good
