86 summers gone by, Bambino put a hex on the Bean
Em A7 Em C D
We were living on a tear and a sigh, in the shadow of the Bronx Machine
G C D G C D
Man, you could feel it smolder, the whole town had an attitude
Em A7 Em C D
Then they get a little chip on the shoulder, say something that's downright rude

Oh, damn them Yankees, outspending everybody two to one
Em A7 Em C G D
Picking up on the cream of the crop, stealing everyone's favorite son

Angels of Fenway hear our prayers, we have been patient, we have been chastened

Grandmama was a Fenway fan, even after Grandad died
Em A7 Em C D
I still remember her holding my hand, taking me along for the ride
G C D G C D
She was born in 19 18, last year that the Red Sox won
Em A7 Em C D
Back the when they sold the Babe, something that they never shoulda ever have done

One more!
Bm G
Hey Nanna can I have another Coke?
Bm E A A Gbm
Here come the hot dog ma-----n, look at that, his bat just broke

Gee, that's got to kill his hand
Bm G Bm E
Riding out on the Green Line, watching the town go by
A Gbm A D
Nanna made another Red Sox fan, till the day I die
Verse:

That was back in sixty-five, doesn't seem like a long time ago

Grandmama keeping hope alive, watch them win in double-o-four

Holding on by the skin of our teeth, like a hungry dog on a bone

Angels of Fenway give them peace, they have been patient, Red Sox nation

The whole world held it's breath, people got down on their knees

Waiting for the sudden death, praying to heaven for hell to freeze
G C D G C D
Nanna watched from her hospital bed, she was there till the end of the race
Em A7 Em C D
I couldn't hear the last word she said but she was lying there with a smile on her face
G C D Em C D
Just a little smile on her face
G C D Em C D G
Doesn't seem like long time ago
