[Verse 1] They said “take it easy” Doctor shook his head Clubs collecting dust By the door of the shed Sleepless mornings Watching highlights on the screen Thinking that was it For the old course dream [Chorus] Back on the fairway Even if it’s short and thin Don’t care how far it flies I’m just glad I’m swingin’ again Might not bomb it Might just keep it straight But I’m laughing with my brothers And that feeling’s great Yeah I’m back on the fairway I thought I’d lost that gate [Verse 2] First tee tremble All the boys around Grip feels different Heart’s the loudest sound Ball pops forward Barely leaves the ground But the cheer from my friends Shakes the whole place down [Chorus] Back on the fairway Even if it’s short and thin Don’t care how far it flies I’m just glad I’m swingin’ again Might not bomb it Might just keep it straight But I’m riding in the cart And the day feels great Yeah I’m back on the fairway I thought I’d lost that gate [Bridge] I was stuck in the rough of my mind Counting all the things I’d left behind Then a voice said “Man Just come along” You don’t have to be strong To belong [Chorus] Back on the fairway Even if it’s short and thin Don’t care how far it flies I’m just glad I’m swingin’ again Might not bomb it Might just keep it straight They’re slapping my back As we celebrate Yeah I’m back on the fairway And that walk feels great I’m back on the fairway I’m back I’m back I’m back (hey!)
