[Intro]
C G Am C
F G C
[Verse 1]
C G Am C
We grew up together, in New York City
F G C
Oh, how the time has flown by
C C Am C
We were inseparable, closer than brothers
F G C
My best friend Sammy and I.
C G Am C
We’d play by the oak tree, in back of my house
F G C
Tossing a ball to and fro
C C Am C
Each one of us dreaming, pretending to be
F G C
The great Joe DiMaggio.
[Chorus]
F G Am C
One day we each bought a package of Topp’s
F G C
And opened them under the tree
Am F G
Look Sam! I’ve got Joe DiMaggio’s card
F C
And he was so jealous of me.
F G F
I lovingly hid it, deep inside my drawer
F G C
Where it would be safe as can be
Am G F G F
And I vowed I would keep it forever and ever
C G C
It was so precious to me…
C G C
It was so precious to me.
[Verse 2]
C G Am C
When we grew older, and left for Yeshiva
F G C
A change could be seen from the start
C C Am C
Sam loved to study while I loved to daydream
F G C
Slowly we drifted apart.
C G Am C
I watched him grow, in his learning and faith
F G C
With a mixture of envy and pride
C C Am C
I realized with sadness, no more could it be
F G C
My best friend Sammy and I.
