Verso 1:
G                      Em                 
I know what you wanna say       
G                            Em 
I think that you're all the same 
G                        Em 
Constantly being led astray  
G                                   Em 
You think you know something you don't 


G             Em  
Downtown hotspot 
                   D 
Halfway up the street 
              C/G 
I used to be free  
                   G 
I used to be seventeen    
            Em  
Follow my shadow 
                D 
Around your corner  
                  C/G  
I used to be seventeen  
                    G  
Now you're just like me  

Verso 2:
G                                 E  
Down beneath the ashes and the stone  
G                                 Em  
Sure of what I've lived and have known 
G                           Em  
I see you so uncomfortably alone 
G                                         Em 
I wish I could show you how much you've grown  


G              Em 
Downtown hotspot 
                         D 
I used to be on this street  
                  C/G  
I used to be seventeen  
                    G 
I used to be seventeen  
                Em  
Now you're a hotshot  
                D  
Hanging on my block 
         C/G 
Sun coming up  
             G 
Who's my shadow?  

Ponte:
                 Em 
La-la-la-la-la-la-la  
D               C/G  
La-la-la-la-la-la-la 
G                Em 
La-la-la-la-la-la-la  
D               C/G 
La-la-la-la-la-la-la 

Verso 3:
G                       Em 
I know what you're gonna be 
G                      Em 
I know that you're gonna be  
G                              Em 
You're crumbling it up just to see 
G                              Em  
Afraid that you'll be just like me  


G           Em 
Downtown hotspot 
                       D 
Halfway through this life 
               C/G 
I used to feel free  
                 G  
Was it just a dream?  
                 Em  
Now you're a hotshot 
                     D  
Think you're so carefree 
                     C/G  
But you're just seventeen  
             G 
So much like me  
  
                  Em 
You're just seventeen  
                   D  
You're just seventeen  
       C/G  
Seventeen
