17

 
G 
 I don't know where my head went 
D 
 How did I ever manage? 
F                           C 
 The world got louder but I didn't 
G 
 17 candles burning 
D 
 I wasn't even sure if 
F                            C 
I could ever feel like this again 
 

 
        Am                    E7       E 
But the feeling lasts and its got some truth 
   Bb                C 
As long as you think every girl is 
F 
Better than you 
Am                                      D7 
  And they'll tell you that you're not alone 
 

 
G                                 D 
 I didn't wanna die I just wanted sleep 

And wake up at the end of the year 
   F                    C 
Oh I believe 17 was the death of me 
G                            D 
 Everybody seemed to be just fine 

While I was freaking out inside of my mind 
   F                    C 
Oh I believe 17 was the death of me 
 

 
G 
 I was my own worst enemy 
D 
 Stuck on weird insecurities 
F                                  C N.C. 
 Thanks to some chick I don't even know (never met her in my whole life) 
 

 
        Am                     E7      E 
But the feeling lasts and it's hard to chew 
     Bb                   C                 F 
When all your friends are getting stale and start to hate you 
Am                            D7 
  Maybe you're better on your own 
 

 
G                                 D 
 I didn't wanna die I just wanted sleep 

And wake up at the end of the year 
   F                    C 
Oh I believe 17 was the death of me 
G                            D 
 Everybody seemed to be just fine 

While I was freaking out inside of my mind 
   F                    C 
Oh I believe 17 was the death of me

When you're 17 

You're missing everything
