Verse 1:
G+G D MajorD
18 with a machine in his hand,
E minorEm C majorC
With acne on his chin, and a boot in the sand, He's
G+G D MajorD C majorC
18 but he's double the man his daddy thought he was
G+G D MajorD
From his twin sized bed with a ceiling fan,
E minorEm C majorC
To a bunk bed in Afghanistan, He's
G+G D MajorD C majorC
18 but he's still a man for us,
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Cause there's no time for growing up
Chorus:
G+G D MajorD
When he's, out on the field
E minorEm C majorC
He's got, a body of steal
G+G D MajorD C majorC
And his mama called twice even though he's off the grid
G+G D MajorD
He's a, a fighting machine
E minorEm C majorC
And a, mighty marine
G+G D MajorD C majorC
But he calls his mama back every chance he gets,
E minorEm D MajorD
Cause even superman is still,
C majorC G+G D MajorD E minorEm C majorC
Somebody's kid (somebody's kid)

Cause tonight he's comin' home

He's been thinking 'bout the fireworks and summer nights
