Seventeen - Alessia Cara

/Verse I/

  A augmentedA
My daddy says that life comes at you fast

We all like blades of grass
  D MajorD
We come to prime and in time we just wither away
      F# minorF#m
And it all changes

My view with a looking glass won?t catch the past
   D MajorD                    E MajorE
Only photographs remind us of the passing of days
  A augmentedA
Oh nothing stays the same from yesteryears
          D MajorD
See I recall being afraid of the dark

And holding on to teddy bears
  F# minorF#m
I?d wrap myself in blankets just to cover me from fears
     D MajorD
That was then and now I?m here
    E MajorE
And the night is mine

/Chorus/
      A augmentedA
So hear me scream
                   D MajorD
I was too young to understand what it means
                  F# minorF#m
I couldn?t wait til I could be seventeen
                        D MajorD
I thought he lied when he said take my time to dream
                      A augmentedA
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen
     D MajorD
I?m Seventeen
   F# minorF#m
Seventeen
   D MajorD
Seventeen
                      A augmentedA
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen

/Verse II/

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

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

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

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

And never fought


/Chorus/
      A augmentedA
So hear me scream
                   D MajorD
I was too young to understand what it means
                  F# minorF#m
I couldn?t wait til I could be seventeen
                        D MajorD
I thought he lied when he said take my time to breathe
                      A augmentedA
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen
     D MajorD
I?m Seventeen
   F# minorF#m

   D MajorD

                      A augmentedA

                 F# minorF#m
I?m a know it all, I don?t know enough
                               B minorBm
See I was racing and waiting for the day that I would be old enough
                                  A augmentedA
Guess I?ll be patient and pace myself gotta prepare for when goings rough


/Chorus/
      A augmentedA
So hear me scream
                   D MajorD
I was too young to understand what it means
