 VERSE
 E               A    
 Inna came from Mexico
 E           A      E   
 She tried to find a job
 E                      A                 
 Figured she??d work on rich girls?? nails
 E           A      E     
 That couldn??t be so hard
 
 Inna??s got a twelve year old
 And she dies inside
 She can??t clear the picture from her eyes
 Of leaving that little girl behind
 
 But she??s gonna find a daddy here
 And her girl??s gonna come here too
 But just like every other dream so far
 She knows that one probably won??t come true
 
 Chorus
 B7                                          E      
 And you can see it in her smile looking at her eyes
 B7                                            E                 
 Yeah that??s right, she keeps her smile when she??s about to cry
 B                                       E         
 I think she knows the truth but she whispers faith
 B                       A               E         
 Inna??s friends back home think she??s got it made
 
 Every week she sends some money home
 Says things here are going well
 She doesn??t let the tears touch the page
 And stain the letter all to hell
 
 I met Inna at a grocery store
 We were waiting in line
 I asked her who the Barbie doll was for
 You??d thought that I had asked her who died
 
 I started to apologize
 I was just trying to kill some time
 I still can??t keep Inna from my mind
 But I will never look behind
 
 
 ??Cause I can see it in her smile looking at her eyes
 Yeah that??s right, she keeps her smile when she??s about to cry
 I think she knows the truth but she whispers faith
 Inna??s friends back home ?? they think she??s got it made
