(capo 3)
Intro:  A
E                                                        
At a diner down on Broadway they make small talk,
E                                         
When she brings his eggs and fills his coffee cup,
A                                                   
He jokes about his love life and tells her
                     E
he’s about ready to give up.

D                   A   
That’s when she says, I been there before,
A
You keep on lookin’, 
D                   E
Cause maybe who your lookin’ for is,

Chorus:
A
Somebody in the next car, somebody on the mornin’ train,
E
Somebody in the coffee shop that you walk right by everyday,
A
Somebody that you look at but never really see,
E                B (NC)                A
Somewhere out there, is somebody. 

Across town in a crowded elevator, 
He can’t forget the things that waitress said,
He usually reads the paper,
But today he reads a stranger’s face instead.

It’s that blue-eyed girl, from 2 floors up,
From 2 floors up, maybe she’s the one,
Maybe he could fall in love with,

Chorus


Now they laugh about the moment that it happened,
The moment they both missed until that day,
When he saw his future in her eyes,                                 
Instead of just another friendly face.

And he wonders why, he searched so long,
When she was always there,
At that diner waiting on,

Chorus
