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
D
Seventeen
A
Now I wish I could freeze the time at seventeen
[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
F#m

[Bridge]
A D

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]
A
So hear me scream
