17 Going Under chords by Sam Fender

Intro:
Ab Db Gb Db


Verse 1:
   Ab
I remember, the sickness was forever
Db  Gb                 Db
I remember, stock videos
       Ab
Cold Septembers, the distances we covered
                Db          Gb
The fist-fights on the beach
                      Db
And this is when we stop
                         Ab
Do it all again next week

An embryonic love,
               Db            Gb
The first time that it scarred
                              Db
Embarrassed yourself for someone
                   Ab
Crying like a child

And the boy who kicked Tom's head in
           Db    Gb
Still bugs me now
                     Db
That's the thing it lingers
                             Ab Db Gb Db
It claws you when you're down


Verse 2:
Ab
    I was far too scared of him
                    Db             Gb
But I would hit him in a heartbeat now
                       Db
That's the thing with anger
                       Ab
It begs to stick around

So it can feast you of your beauty
                        Db     Gb
And leave you spending out to other
                              Db
Cause you hurt the ones who love you
                           Ab
You hurt them like they're nothing

Gb Db
                           Ab
You hurt them like they're nothing

Gb Db
                           Ab
You hurt them like they're nothing

Db Gb Db
Ab Db  Gb Db


Verse 3:
Ab                                Db           Gb
    I spent my teenage years, spiralling in silence
                             Db
And I armed myself with a grip
                                Ab
Cause I was always a fucking joke

Buried in their humour
                    Db       Gb
Amongst some white noise and boy's boys
                      Db
Locker room talk and lad's lads
                             Ab
Drenched in cheap drink and stank of fags

A mirrored picture of my old man
             Db            Gb
"Oh god the kid's a dab hand
                               Db
Canny chatter, but he looks sad"
         Bb        Ab
God, the kid looks so sad

Db Gb Db
         Ab
He looks so sad

Db Gb Db


Verse 4:
              Ab
She said "the debt the debt the debt"

So I thought about shifting gear
Db           Gb
 And how she wept and wept and wept
     Db
The luck came down on her
         Ab
I see my mother

The DWP see a number
                 Db       Gb
She cries on the phone in cover
             Db                  Ab
I'm 17 going under, I'm 17 going under

Db Gb Db
             Ab
I'm 17 going under

Db Gb Db
