                  Geoff Moore and The Distance

                   transcribed by Ron Masters
             using the standard tuning conventions:

G                 D
The lights go on, another game day

  Em                        C
I grabbed my bat and headed for the plate

        G                 D               Em
But the first pitch was a curve and I was done - Strike one!

          G                          D
I stepped out of the box, looked the pitcher in the eye

          Em                  C            (See Note #1)
You could read his lips, "Hey punk, you're mine."

     G                         D                      Em (Em D Em)--See Note
#3
So I gave him a wink and said "Let's see what you can do." - Strike two!



CHORUS:
              C          Em          D                     G
Gotta keep my eye on the ball, swing straight and true and follow through

C        Em                  D    (D D D/G D)--See Note #4 
Don't be afraid whatever the call

              C     Em
Because we're never alone

    D                 G
Our coach is there to cheer us on

              F#*  G        F*#        G     (see Note #2)
Well it's the wind up, here comes that ball

          Em                                 C      D
You gotta pray and swing, watch it till it's going, going, its gone

G  D    Em C    G  D  Em
Home    Home    Home  run

           Em   D
(we need a home run)


         G                  D
You know life can be like a baseball game

Em                          C
We're on the same team, but we're not all the same

       G                D             Em       (Em D Em Em D)
That's why we've got to learn to play together

         G                 D
I didn't join this team to sit on the bench

Em              C
I'm going deep, swinging for the fence

G                     D                Em    (Em D Em Em D)
I got some friends on base I gotta get home

(Repeat Chorus)

BRIDGE:

Em                                        C
We are not the first to play this game or stand over this plate

Em                                 C
We are surrounded by their legacy, like they're sittin' in the stands

C
I can see them waving their hands

         Em  C  Em  G   D
saying, "Go, go all the way!"





Ron's Guitar Notes:
===================
           /  =  slide up      
           h  =  hammer on       
           p  =  pull off      

#1  The F#*... Don't know its official name. This was the one chord in the
song that 
gave me fits. This was as close as I could get to the sound. I found that
playing 
the G chord that follows is easier if you play the root 6 G chord.

#2  Roscoe does a little bit of a C chord "turnaround" when transitioning
from the C
chord to the G. Two ways you could play this, one using a hammer on, the
other
a slide.  (I have to admit that I like the slide better. But, hey, they're
probably
both used!)

 Root C Chord Players:      For those who like the fancy stuff:
|--0-0---------3------------x-x---------3---------------------------------|
|--1-1---------0------------5-5---------3---------------------------------|
|--0-0-----0---0------------5-5---------4---------------------------------|
|--2-2-0h2---0-0------------5-5-----5p0-5---------------------------------|
|--3-3---------2------------3-3-5/7-----5---------------------------------|
|--------------3------------x-x---------3---------------------------------|
 


#3  Here's the way I like to play this quick Em to a D stuff:
|--7--7----7--5-----------------------------------------------------------|
|--8--7h8--8--7-----------------------------------------------------------|
|--9--7h9--9--7-----------------------------------------------------------|
|--9--7h9--9--7-----------------------------------------------------------|
|--7-------7--5-----------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|


#4  This is one of those neat little "colorings" that can make things 
sound so nice. It's a D chord. Then a D with an open 1st string. Hammer
on to the second fret and add the G... finally finish with a D.

|--2-0h2-3-3-2------------------------------------------------------------|
|--3-3---3-3-3------------------------------------------------------------|
|--2-2---2-2-2------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
