Seventeen by Mat Kearney
Seventeen
G D
I was only seventeen living out a reckless dream,
C G
Riding those summer streets to the corner of High and 13
G D
Me and other city boys running too wild and too bored
C G
Looking for a grown man''''s toys out at that corner store
C G C G D
Well they threw the money to me and somebody''''s I.D.
G C
I was in the parking lot scared as hell
Em G
Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well
G C
Two bottles of wine, those red and blue lights
Em G
Took a trip down town for the very first time
C G C G D
Watching my own life flash before my eyes
C G
Like I was seventeen
G D
She was from across the tracks with the private school laugh
C G
We were both falling too fast down a river that wouldn''''t last
C G C G D
It was only one night and our first time
G C
I was in the parking lot scared as hell
Em G
Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well
G C
I held her tight between those yellow lines
Em G
Sat there crying about a miscarried life
C G C G D
Watching my own life flash before my eyes
C
Like I was seventeen
G
Oh it was a lifetime ago
C G
I pray for mercy walking on down that road
D D
I met the woman of my dreams, she said yes to me
C G C G C G
And she said, \\"Baby I''''m late, never this late. I''''m feeling a change. We
D
Should find out either way.\\"
C G C G
And I''''m grabbing my keys and I''''m shutting the front door
C G D
I can hardly breathe driving that familiar road
C G
And I''''m parked between those yellow lines
C G
Looking down that aisle
C G D
Don''''t know whether to laugh or whether to cry
G C
I''''m in the parking lot scared as hell
Em G
Sending sixteen dollars down a wishing well
G C
Two pink lines or maybe just one
Em G
Could be my daughter or it could be my son
C G C G D
Watching our own lives flash before my eyes
C G
Like I was seventeen
C G C G
Funny how the years switch around the tears that way
C G
Like I was seventeen
