Nolan Ryan chords by Jerry Jeff Walker


Jerry Jeff Walker Chords

Nolan Ryan
By Jerry Jeff Walker

E
Well, our story starts in Texas, where he's tempered by the heat
E
That skinny Alvin boy believes his fastball can't be heat
      A                                              E 
So he brings it and he brings it and it passes every test
        B                       A            B              E
They're talkin' he's a wild man might be the fastest in the West
           E 
Well, he's drafted by New York, he's gonna pitch up there in Shea
     E   
With those amazing Mets, he'll help them take it all the way
   A                                                   E
He gets a World Series ring, he stays modest, he don't boast
         B                  A                B              E
Now it's off to California, where he'll make history on the coast


Chorus:
A                             E
Nolan Ryan, he's a hero to us all
A                                         E 
Nolan Ryan, he stands straight, he stands tall
B
He don't mess around boys
A       B                  E
He just throws a mean fast ball


Tom Morgan is the angel, gets Nolan in second gear
Then he pitches four no-hitters in about as many years
He's working for Gene Autry, they're calling him the Ryan Express
He throws one ball a hundred, now he's the fastest in the West

But after eight years on the left coast, he says he wants to come home
So he signs on with the Astros, he’ll bring magic to the dome
As he throws his fifth no-hitter, they’re talkin' about he might be the best
In Texas people know, he's the fastest in the West

Chorus

Now he's a Texas Ranger, but he don't tote no gun
He'll mow you down with the heater, you smell leather, hear it hum
He throws a sixth no-hitter, the Oakland A's just met Big Tex
Now they're gonna judge all the rest, boys, against the fastest in the West
Now let's count up some numbers, he's forty-three years of age
He's got 5200 strike-outs, six no-hitters to date
There's 57 shut-outs, right up against 300 wins
And on the very first ballot, the Hall of Fame's gotta take him in

Chorus twice
