Seventeen(Chords)

	        Primeira Parte 

   A 
My daddy says that life comes at you fast 
   
We all like blades of grass 
   D 
We come to prime and in time we just wither away 
           F#m 
And it all changes 
  
My view with a looking glass won't catch the past 
     D                                       E 
Only photographs remind us of the passing of days 
   A 
Oh nothing stays the same from yesteryears 
                    D 
See I recall being afraid of the dark 
         
And holding on to teddy bears 
    F#m 
I'd wrap myself in blankets just to cover me from fears 
         D 
That was then and now I'm here 
        E 
And the night is mine 

Refrão 

            A 
So hear me scream 
                                      D 
I was too young to understand what it means 
                                    F#m 
I couldn't wait til I could be seventeen 
                                               D 
I thought he lied when he said take my time to dream 
                                           A 
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen 
         D 
I'm Seventeen 
     F#m 
Seventeen 
     D 
Seventeen 
                                           A 
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen 

Segunda Parte 

   A 
My mother said don't forget where you come from, where you've been 
D 
Always keep your closest friends they can't slip away 
              F#m 
They keep you grounded 

Oh keep yourself surrounded with good advice 
    D 
And yeah I guess that sounded nice when I was ten 
       A 
Oh but never were there truer words 

And I'll my days I've ever heard 
    D 
And when she told me little girl the answer is love 
             F#m 
So those are words that I keep with me 

Though the seasons change so quickly 
          D 
Keep them buried in my heart 

And never fought 

Refrão

                                               D 
I thought he lied when he said take my time to breathe 
                                           A 
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen 
         D

Ponte 

A                             D 
I been goin on, I been growin up 
                                 F#m 
I'm a know it all, I don't know enough 
                                                              Bm 
See I was racing and waiting for the day that I would be old enough 
                                                                    A
