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
