Intro.:  | (C) (Cmaj7) | (Am/C) (G/C) | (C) (Cmaj7) | (Am/C) 

(G/C) I remember when (C)baseball was (Cmaj7)everything
It was (Am/C)Little League, but what a (G/C)big game
There were (Am)two men on and one man (Dm)out
I got a (C)fastball hangin' (Cmaj7)outside
I (Am/C)swung that bat with (G/C)all my might
(Am) And the ball was gone, they say I (Dm)knocked the cover off
(F)It was the only homer that I ever (C)had, you shoulda seen my (G)dad

(Chorus)
And there (C)ain't nobody gonna take that from me (F) as long as I'm holdin' on
(C) Heaven wouldn't ask it of me, the devil on a good day ain't that strong
(Dm) I'm keepin' it here inside me (F) as long as I live and breathe
The (G)ball was soarin' and the (F)crowd was roarin'
And there (Em)ain't nobody gonna (G/D)take that from me

Inst.:  | (C) (Cmaj7) | (Am/C) (G/C) --

I was (C)nineteen, it was a (Cmaj7)good job
Movin' (Am/C)TVs on a (G/C)loading dock
'Til the (Am)boss said, "Son, try to lose every (Dm)seventh one
I got it (C)worked out with a (Cmaj7)good friend
Keep your (Am/C)mouth shut, and we'll (G/C)cut you in
Now (Am)what do you say, don't you want to be (Dm)rich one day"
(F) I lost a real good job that (C) night, but I kept my (G) pride

(Chorus)
And there (C)ain't nobody gonna take that from me (F) as long as I'm holdin' on
(C) Heaven wouldn't ask it of me, the devil on a good day ain't that strong
(Dm) I'm keepin' it here inside me (F) as long as I live and breathe
I (G)said goodbye with my head (F)held high
And there (Em)ain't nobody gonna (G/D)take that from me (C)

(Bridge)
And (F)sometimes it (Em)feels like my (Dm)best years are be-(Em)hind me
Then (F)somehow, out of (Em)nowhere, something (Eb)sneaks up to re-(Dm)mind me

Like this (C)mornin', I (Cmaj7)woke up to a (Am/C)little voice that (G/C)spoke up
(Am)Sayin', "Daddy, please, fix a bowl of (Dm)Rice Krispies
(F) You're the bestest friend that I ever had, (C) you know I love you, (G) Dad"

(Chorus)
And there (C)ain't nobody gonna take that from me (F) as long as I'm holdin' on
(C) Heaven wouldn't ask it of me, the devil on a good day ain't that strong
(Dm) I'm keepin' it here inside me (F) as long as I live and breathe
(G)I got more than I (F)ever asked for and there (Em)ain't nobody gonna (Dm)take that from me
