Somebody's Baby

• C

Intro: C Am 

                C 
She yells, "if you were homeless 
Sure as hell you'd be drunk 
    Am 
Or high, or trying to get there 
Or begging for junk 
            F 
When people don't want you 
                          C 
They just throw you money for beer" 

       C 
Her name was November 
She went by Autumn or Fall 
          Am 
It was seven long years 
Since the Autumn when all 
            F 
Of her nightmares grew fingers 
                                     C 
And all of her dreams grew a tear 

             F 
She's somebody's baby 
                             Am 
Somebody's baby girl 
            F 
She's somebody's baby 
                             Am 
Somebody's baby girl 
                 G                         C 
And she's somebody's baby still 

C 
                      C 
She screams, "well, if you never 
Gone it alone 
              Am 
Well then go ahead, you better 
Throw the first stone 
              F 
You got one lonely stoner 
                       C 
Waiting to bring to her knees" 

       C 
She dreams about heaven 
Remembering hell 
          Am 
As a nightmare she visits 
And knows all too well 
           F 
Every now and again when she's sober 
                     C 
She brushes her teeth 

            F 
She's somebody's baby 
                              Am 
Somebody's baby girl 
            F 
She's somebody's baby 
                             Am 
Somebody's baby girl 
                   G                       C 
And she's somebody's baby still 

    C 
Today was her birthday 
Strangely enough 
               Am 
When the cops found her body 
At the foot of the bluff 
         F 
The anonymous caller this morning 
                  C 
Tipped off the police 

        C 
They got her ID 
From the dental remains 
                Am 
The same fillings intact 
The same nicotine stains 
          F 
The birth and the death were both over 
              C 
With no one to grieve 

            F 
She's so mebody's baby 
                            Am 
Somebody's baby girl 
            F 
She's somebody's baby 
                           Am 
Somebody's baby girl 
                   G                        C 
And she's somebody's baby still
