Anyone have some good chords for the verses? Here's the first verse, but I think there is also a second verse. 1908 was the last year the Cubs won the World Serious -- maybe this year .........
Thanks, Chris

TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL GAME

Katie Casey was baseball mad,
Had the fever and had it bad,
Just to root for her hometown crew,
ev'ry sou-- Katie blew.

On a Saturday, her young beau
called to see if she'd like to go
To see a show but Miss Kate said, "No,
But I'll tell you what you can do"
                              
Take me out to the ballgame,
Take me out to the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack.
I don't care if I never get back,

Let me root, root for the home team,
If they don't win it's a shame.
For it's one, two, three strikes you're out.
At the old ball game.
