Key of D, Capo on 3rd fret
D
He gave me his words but they were half-hearted
A Em
Still louder than the voice in my head sayin' "Run,"
G
In my head sayin' "Run"
D
But I was captivated, Yeah I was outsmarted
A Em
Everytime he said "Oh you'll only live once,
G
"Yeah we'll only live once"
Em A
And I remember all of it like yesterday, waiting in the driveway
D
Hoping that he'd come through
Em A
With a passengers seat for me to jump into, I was
D Em
Stupid and Seventeen, in the front seat of his car
G A
Just letting my heart lead, 'Cause it didn't even know it's first scar
D Em
And I'd look up at the horizon, thinkin' "nothing can touch me now,
G A
I'll just look into those big blue eyes and it'll all work out somehow."
Em - A D D Em A G
I was smarter than everything, Stupid and Seventeen.
D
Well it's been four years now since it all started
A Em
And now and then a part of me still wants to go
G D
Down that never-ending dead end road
And for the rest of the world I'm so guarded
A Em
So what he does to me I don't know
G
Yeah he just breaks me down
Em A
I say I won't but then I do, see him in a crowded room
D
I forget everything
Em A
And I go right on back to being
D Em
Stupid and Seventeen, in the front seat of his car
G A
Just letting my heart lead, Like it doesn't even know it's first scar
D Em
And I'd look up at the horizon, thinkin' "nothing can touch me now,
G A
I'll just look into those big blue eyes and it'll all work out somehow."
Em - A D D Em A G
Thinking I was smarter than everything, Stupid and Seventeen.
Em G D
Well it's been drawn out for so long now
A
Do I even know you, do you even know me?
Em G
I guess the reason I've still been believing is
D A
You're the only one who can make me be
D Em
Stupid and Seventeen, but I'm tired of you waterin' me down
G A
Getting out of your passenger's seat, I'm getting in the driver's side now
D Em
And you can look in these big blue eyes and just don't think you're going to see
G A
That girl who was sittin' here wide eyed hearing things she know you don't mean
Em - A D
Cause you know I don't want to be, Stupid and Seventeen
D Em
Don't go away, sayin' "I'll just keep lookin' at you now
G
[Even] if we stay it'll work somehow."
A
It's not gonna make it, it's not gonna make it better I
D Em G
Tell myself "just keep on looking at him now, maybe it'll all work out somehow"
A
But baby I am done being
D
Stupid and Seventeen
Thank you!!! :):) Happy Playing!!!
