Seventeen - Alessia Cara

Verse 1

[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

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

[A]

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 heart

And 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 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

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

[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
