Chords & lyrics
Chord names sit directly above the word where you change.
Primeira Parte A My daddy says that life comes at you fast We 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 Refrão 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 Segunda Parte 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 heart And never fought Refrão 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 breathe 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 Ponte 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 Refrão 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 breathe 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
