Somebody's Mama
Written by David Lee Murphy & Kim Tribble
Recorded by Joe Nichols
[Intro]
F G C C
[Verse 1]
That Cnew tattoo still stung just a little, the old Fguy said "Well, what do you think?
Is Cthis what you wanted, Amjust the word 'freedom', sur rFounded by eagles' wings"G  
He said "It's Cnone of my business, but who is this angel that Fyou had me cover up?" F/EEEDC
I said, "Oh, Amthat's just a name, it Gstill makes me think of a girl FI used to love"G  
[Chorus]
But FI figured she's probably somebody's mama by nowC  
I bet she's Gcovered in diamonds, that car that she's driving cost more than most people's houseC  
FShe used to say how she wanted babies and I Cwas too young to slow downAm  
But FI figured she's probably Gsomebody's mama by now   CC/CG A G E D A
[Verse 2]
We used to Csit on the hood of my old blue Camaro Fand watch the sun come up
CStare out across that big Amsleepy desert, like the Fwhole world revolved usG  
And CI hope she'd smile if she knew right now Fthat I was talking like this
But Amshe's out there somewhere, makin' Gsomebody happy, Fwherever she isG  
[Chorus]
But FI figured she's probably somebody's mama by nowC  
I bet she's Gcovered in diamonds, that car that she's driving cost more than most people's houseC  
FShe used to say how she wanted babies and I Cwas too young to slow downAm  
But FI figured she's probably Gsomebody's mama by now   CC/CD E G E C G
[Bridge]
AmI don't know where she is, I'm Fglad I don't know where she lives
'Cause D7one day I just might show up at her door G  
[Chorus]
But FI figured she's probably somebody's mama by nowC  
I bet she's Gcovered in diamonds, that car that she's driving cost more than most people's houseC
