Intro: E
E A/E E
I hear the church bells ring, Willie Mays is up at bat
E A/E E
I hear the crowd go wild, all he did was touch his hat
C#m E
Well, meanwhile Carol Doda stood up and said I won’t be ignored
E A E
She showed ’em everything she had, then she showed ’em all a little more
E A E
Jim Jones and his Temple, on Gary Street right next to Young Bill Brown
E A E
Jim he walked right up to Bill, clicked his heels, said you know who I am
C#m E
Meanwhile Bugs and Daffy Duck were hitchin up the coast to Pismo Beach
E A E
While over in the in the Tonkin Golf, the Navy took a hit or so it seems
E G# A F# E G# A F# E
Three on and two outs under the lights, oh, nobody knows who'll make it home tonight, oh
E A/E E
Laughin Sal said please don't go, don't leave me here alone and make a stand
E A E
She looked so faded in the twilight, down there where the breakers meet the sand
C#m E
Now someone said to Laughin Sal, hey Laughin Sal, just what you laughin at?
E A E
She said I'm only laughin at myself, keep it down, Willie's up at bat
E G# A F# E G# A F# E
Three on and two outs under the lights, oh, nobody knows who'll make it home tonight, oh
E A/E E
Well that was all so long ago, there's always something else to be against
E A E
And the only thing we know for sure, is Willie always did swing for the fence, come on
E G# A F# E G# A F# E
Three on and two outs under the lights, oh, nobody knows who'll make it home tonight, oh
E G# A F# E G# A F#
Three on and two outs under the lights, oh, nobody knows who'll make it home tonight
F# (hold) A E
Nobody knows who'll make it home tonight
Solo: ( E G# A F# ) repeat and end on E
