Performance: Living Room Worktapes

Key: C

Verse 1:
C
I drive home the same way
F
Two left turns on 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 sopmebody's sister
                                C
Counting change at the lemonade stand
                    F
Probably somebody's high school first kiss
C                                                F
Dancing in the 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 wndering 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:
                       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 the gym where the kids all talk about someday plans
         Am                                                F
Now this light'll turn green and I'll hand her a couple of dollars
         Am                           F
And I'll wonder if she fell and noone 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 laughing, oh
C                             F
Back when she was sopmebody's sister
                                C
Counting change at the lemonade stand
                    F
Probably somebody's high school first kiss
C                                                F
Dancing in the 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, Yes yes
                 C        F
She's somebody's daughter
           C        F
Somebody's daughter
