[INTRO]
A
[VERSE 1]
A
My daddy says that life comes at you fastWe 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
[CHORUS]
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
[VERSE 2]
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 heartAnd never fought
[CHORUS]
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 she 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
[BRIDGE]
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 Guess I'll be patient and pace myself gotta prepare for when goings rough
[CHORUS]
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
Enjoy!
