Verse 1
My [A]daddy says that life comes at you fast
We all like blades of grass
We [D]come to prime and in time we just wither away
And it all [F#m]changes
My view with a looking glass won’t catch the past
Only [D]photographs remind us of the passing of [E]days
Oh [A]nothing stays the same from yesteryears
See I recall being [D]afraid of the dark
And holding on to teddy bears
I’d [F#m]wrap myself in blankets just to cover me from fears
That was [D]then and now I’m here
And the [E]night is mine
Chorus
So hear me [A]scream
I was too young to understand what it [D]means
I couldn’t wait til I could be [F#m]seventeen
I thought he lied when he said take my time to [D]dream
Now I wish I could freeze the time at [A]seventeen
I’m [D]Seventeen
[F#m]Seventeen
[D]Seventeen
Now I wish I could freeze the time at [A]seventeen
Verse 2
My [A]mother said don’t forget where you come from, where you’ve been
[D]Always keep your closest friends they can't slip away
They keep you [F#m]grounded
Oh keep yourself surrounded with good advice
And [D]yeah I guess that sounded nice when I was ten
Oh but [A]never were there truer words
And I’ll my days I’ve ever heard
And [D]when she told me little girl the answer is love
So those are [F#m]words that I keep with me
Though the seasons change so quickly
Keep them [D]buried in my heart
And never fought
Chorus
So hear me [A]scream
I was too young to understand what it [D]means
I couldn’t wait til I could be [F#m]seventeen
I thought he lied when he said take my time to [D]breathe
Now I wish I could freeze the time at [A]seventeen
I’m [D]Seventeen
[F#m]Seventeen
[D]Seventeen
Now I wish I could freeze the time at [A]seventeen
Bridge
[A]I been goin on, I been growin [D]up
I’m a know it all, I don’t know [F#m]enough
See I was racing and waiting for the day that I would be old [Bm]enough
Guess I’ll be patient and pace
myself gotta prepare for when goings [A]rough
Chorus
So hear me [A]scream
I was too young to understand what it [D]means
I couldn’t wait til I could be [F#m]seventeen
I thought he lied when he said take my time to [D]breathe
Now I wish I could freeze the time at [A]seventeen
I’m [D]Seventeen
[F#m]Seventeen
[D]Seventeen
Now I wish I could freeze the time at [A]seventeen
