C                               F             C 
Rowing the campground up by the lake where we swam. 
        F           C  
We were hunting for snakes, 
        F            C      
But we couldn't find them. 
C                
Surrounded by nothing, 
                   F            C 
But the nothing's surrounded by us. 
              F         C 
But it's just me in my room, 
F         C 
With my eyes shut. 

 

        Am    C 
Oh when I was seventeen, 
   F      C          
My mother said to me 
Am         C             F                      C    
Don't stop imagining The day that you do is the day that you die. 
    Am       C 
Now I pull a wanton carriage, 
   F                   C      
Instead of the horses, grazing along. 
Am    C     
I was having fun. 
F                  C 
We were all having fun. 



Am  C  F  C (2x) 

   C                                                F        C 
My brain kicking faster than I can, but not fast enough. 
F               C 
Who is there to talk to 
     F             C 
That won't lock me up? 
   C                                 F                    C 
At least God doesn't judge me by the thoughts that aren't mine. 
           F          C 
The snakes I couldn't find, 
  F             C 
I don't want to find. 


C   Am   F   C (4x) 
Ohhhhh 

(Chorus) 

        Am    C 
Oh when I was seventeen, 
   F      C          
My mother said to me 
Am         C             F                      C    
Don't stop imagining The day that you do is the day that you die. 
    Am       C 
Now I pull a wanton carriage, 
   F                   C      
Instead of the horses, grazing along. 
Am    C     
I was having fun. 
F                  C 
We were all having fun.
