With the sun in his eyes he looked up and said no

That little boy made the all star team
C F Am G
Through High school and college he lived out his dream
F C G C
And his hometown friends said the big leagues called

F C G
Then he leaned in and whispered some-where someone saying
to chorus, repeat intro "Aw watch me now"
