G D G C
Well we took the field on a perfect day, it was right out of a dream
G D Em C
Never seen a sky so crystal clear, never walked on grass so green
G D G C
And in the stands when they clapped their hands, well I could feel it in my chest
G D Em C
Yeah they come from almost every State to find out who’s the best
C D G C
So put me in, I’m your man, I promise I can do it all
G D E
And feels so good to breath the air back home in Omaha

G D Em C

G D G C
From the Texas hills to the Golden Gate to the warm Miami shore
G D Em C
They play the game, a thousand names you’ve never heard before
G D G C
Yeah but don’t forget a single face, you could see that boy again
G D Em C
And somewhere down the road you might say, "hey, I remember when"
C D G C
‘Cause there’s a dream in every glove, there’s a wish on every ball
G D Em
And once again they’ll make their name back home in Omaha

G D Em C

D C
Well it feels like it might be time
C G
Somebody gives this game a rise
G Em
Throw me one across the plate
Em A7th
Man I’ll put it in another State
A7th C
And that ain’t no lie
G D G C
When it all comes down to the final round I’ll be right here on this hill
G D Em C
Yeah me and the boys are gonna make some noise and give this crowd a thrill
G D G C
So raise that flag, sing that song and throw me out a brand new ball
G D Em
And there’s nowhere I’d rather be than back home in Omaha

G D Em C

Back home in Omaha, Back home in Omaha,
