    F                                    G                
At seventeen, she's just like me when I was seventeen 
             C                                            
So I don't blame her

      C                                                  
It's like it happened over night 
      Am                                                  
We're always wrong, they're always right 
   F                                 G                    
We use to be the one's breakin' the rules 
                F                   G                   
Now we're just mothers, we're just fathers of
