Capo: 5th fret

[Verse 1]
            C
If I had a sister, I might be with her
          F
Out at a bar, talking 'bout a broken heart
             C
If she was married, it'd make me happy
                F
I'd be by her side, she'd make a beautiful bride
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 G
She'd be my built-in best friend
Am
Right around my age
 G
She would know how hard it's been
  Am
'Cause we grew up the same way
 
 
[Chorus]
  C
People would say we look like each other
 E
Got the same brown eyes as our mother
 F
Someone who's been there bеfore
                        Fm
Caught sneakin' in the samе backdoor
C
Going back home would be a lot better
 E                                 F
When our parents fight, we'd just smile
                         Fm       C
It gets lonely being an only child
 
 
[Verse 2]
            C
If I had a brother, a little bit younger
              F
He might act tough, every time I fell in love
                   C
Yeah, he would be taller and help with our father
             F
When we got old, I wouldn't have to do it alone
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 G
He'd be my built-in best friend
Am
Right around my age
G
Know he'd be a gentleman
Am
'Cause we grew up the same way
 
 
[Chorus]
  C
People would say we look like each other
 E
Got the same brown eyes as our mother
 F
Someone who's been there bеfore
                        Fm
Caught sneakin' in the samе backdoor
C
Going back home would be a lot better
 E                                 F
When our parents fight, we'd just smile
                         Fm       C
It gets lonely being an only child
 
 
[Outro]
E      F
Hmm, hmm
                        Fm    C
It gets lonely being an only child
              If I had a sister I might be with her
Out at a bar talking 'bout a broken heart
If she was married it'd make me happy
I'd be by her side, she'd make a beautiful bride

She'd be my built-in best friend right around my age
She would know how hard it's been 'cause we grew up the same way

People would say we look like each other
Got the same brown eyes as our mother
Someone who's been there before
Caught sneaking in the same back door
Going back home would be a lot better
When our parents fight, we'd just smile
It gets lonely being an only child

If I had a brother a little bit younger
He might act tough every time I fell in love
He would be taller and help with our father
When we got old I wouldn't have to do it alone

He'd be mybuilt-in best friend right around my age
Know he'd be a gentleman 'cause we grew up the same way

People would say we look like each other
Got the same brown eyes as our mother
Someone who's been there before
Caught sneaking in the same back door
Going back home would be a lot better
When our parents fight, we'd just smile
It gets lonely being an only child
Hmm, hmm
It gets lonely being an only child
