(We, the undersigned, put forth his name)
[Verse 1]
F/A Bb F
Whereas Reggie Leach was born and played
Bbadd9 C F
Minor hockey back in my hometown
F/A Bb F
The Rifle fired his first five hundred here
Bbadd9 C Dm C Bb F
And slapped his way into the NHL
(We, the undersigned, put forth his name)
[Verse 2]
F/A Bb F
Whereas some of us weren't always fair
Bbadd9 C F
To the Native kid on borrowed skates

In the corners with our elbows up

Whereas Reggie on a playoff run

Of Reggie smiling with the Stanley Cup
F/A Bb F
Curled their corners, dropped off bedroom walls
Bbadd9 C (Dm)
Left a square of where they used to be
[Outro]

Therefore, we, the undersigned put forth his name
