           Em                    B
Little fifteen, you help her forget
              Em                          B
The world outside; you're not part of it yet
                   Em                         B
And if you could drive, you could drive her away
               Em                 B
To a happier place, to a happier day
                     Am                B
That exists in your mind and in your smile
             Am                     B   (NC)
She could escape there just for a while
           Em  B  Em  B

           Em                                 B
Little fifteen, why take the smooth with the rough?
                  Em                             B
When things run smooth, it's already more than enough
                Em                 B
She knows your mind is not yet in league
                      Em                      B
With the rest of the world and its little intrigues
              Am                         B
Do you understand? Do you know what she means?
              Am                             B
As time goes by and when you see what she's seen, you will

           Ebm                          Bb
Little fifteen, why does she have to defend
                Ebm          Bb
Her feelings inside? Why pretend
                 Ebm                  Bb
She's not had a life, a life of near misses
                  Ebm                   Bb
Now all that she wants is three little wishes
                           Abm                                  Bb
She wants to see with your eyes, she wants to smile with your smile
                      Abm                   Bb
She wants a nice surprise every once in a while
                           Abm                                  Bb
She wants to see with your eyes, she wants to smile with your smile
                      Abm                   Bb  (NC)
She wants a nice surprise every once in a while
               Eb
