v1:
I'm up to bat
Kick off the dirt, dig in my heels
Adjust my hat
I'm ready to swing, it don't seem real
ch:
You could feel the breeze a mile away
I wasn't even close
A cartoon tragedy in every frame
A 2nd chance and then a 3rd
That's how it goes
You'll never get more swings if you don't...
Stay in the game
v2:
Look up the hall
The 4th-prettiest girl in middle school
I'm feeling small
and ill-prepared for ridicule
ch:
But something has come over me
I'm moving in to ask
She doesn't even seem to know my name
The disappointment washes over me
I wear it like a mask
You'll never make the date if you don't...
Stay in the game
v3:
My first guitar
The action high, my talent low
I might not go far
Just wanna write a tune, maybe play a show
ch:
I ended up right where I am
A world full of songs
Feels better than I imagined fame
So keep doing what you do
Carve a world where you belong
But you won't get the chance if you don't...
Stay in the game
