Chords with lyrics
Used to be a major scale
A minorAm FF DmDm G+G
But the melody went stale
A minorAm FF DmDm G+G
Musical cacophony let
A minorAm FF DmDm G+G
Eensy Weensy spider free
You're a rich little boy
Who's had to work for his toys
You've got all the sensibilities
Of an upper class guy
A minorAm C majorC FF G+G
No I'm not your little slave
A minorAm C majorC FF G+G
No I don't twist and turn that way
A minorAm C majorC FF G+G
Only got bad things to say
A minorAm C majorC G+G FF
You're always asking what is up, up with me
A minorAm C majorC FF
Could never tell you what happened
G+G C majorC G+G A minorAm
The day I turned seventeen
C majorC G+G A minorAm
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
C majorC G+G FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
Seventeen, seventeen
(same chords as verse 1)
Oh, you are embarrassed of me
Cos I use my tongue freely
Bet you wish I couldn't speak
Cos when I do, you know
I tell you why you're being weak
You want a hassle free life
Go get your upper class wife
Oh, she's got all the personality
Of a lemon that has been
Truly sucked dry
You teach me how to behave
I felt you question the way
I was brought up as a baby
Well you don't know fuck about my family
Could never tell you what happened
The day I turned seventeen
The rise of a king and the fall of a queen
Seventeen, seventeen
C majorC G+G A minorAm
Never fell down like a princess
C majorC G+G A minorAm
I used to kid myself in this stress
C majorC G+G FF
That it was just how things
C majorC G+G A minorAm
Were meant to be
C majorC G+G A minorAm C majorC G+G A minorAm
Oh, seventeen, seventeen.
(original last verse)
Never fell down like a princess
