[Intro]
C F
[Verse 1]
C
I drive home the same way
F
Two left turns off the interstate
C
And she's always standing at the stoplight
F
On 18th street
C
She could be a Sarah, she could be an Emily
F
An Olivia, maybe a Cassidy
C
With the shaky hands on the cardboard sign
F
And she's looking at me
[Chorus]
C F
Bet she was somebody's best friend laughing
C F
Back when she was somebody's sister
C
Counting change at the lemonade stand
F
Probably somebody's high school first kiss
C F
Dancing in a gym where the kids all talk about someday plans
Am F
Now this light'll turn green and I'll hand her a couple dollars
Am F
And I'll wonder if she got lost or they forgot her
C
She's somebody's daughter
F
Somebody's daughter
C F
Somebody's daughter
[Verse 2]
C F
Well, did she give up wondering where the cars all go?
C
Can she even tell that I don't know what to say?
F
So I just nod my head and wave
C
Well, no one's gonna ask what she wants to be
F C
Or why we're both stuck here at the mercy of geography
F
And whether it shines or rains
[Chorus]
C F
Bet she was somebody's best friend laughing
C F
Back when she was somebody's sister
C
Counting change at the lemonade stand
F
Probably somebody's high school first kiss
C F
Dancing in a gym where the kids all talk about someday plans
Am F
Now this light'll turn green and I'll hand her a couple dollars
Am F
And I'll wonder how she felt when no one caught her
C
She's somebody's daughter
F
Somebody's daughter
C
Somebody's daughter
F
Somebody's daughter
[Bridge]
C
Oh, I don't know the reasons why
F
I'm the one who's driving by
C F
And she's the one on the corner of 18th Street
[Chorus]
C F
Bet she was somebody's best friend
C F
Back when she was somebody's sister
C F
Bet she was somebody's first kiss
C F
Dancing in a gym where the kids all talk about someday, someday
Am F
Now this light'll turn green and I'll hand her a couple dollars
Am F
Oh, and I'll wonder if she got lost or they forgot her
C F C F
She's somebody's da---ughter
C F
She's somebody's daughter
