Am Dm
Take me to your house
G C
And show me to all your family
Am Dm
I don't care about
G7 C
The fool that it makes me seem
Am Dm
'Cause I know that you're 17
G C
And I'm just an aging dandy
Am Dm
The world is light and dark
G Am
And we live in between
When I was a boy
I wandered the streets of downtown
Staring at the sky
And feeling that I didn't belong
In a world where the gentle seem wrong
And teeth get knocked out on Sundays
I lay down in the shower
And make it go away
Dm G C
This fading world
Dm G C
My lovely girl
And I know that you're 17
And I'm just an aging dandy
The world is light and dark
And we live in between
When I was a boy
I wandered the streets of downtown
Staring at the sky
And feeling that I didn't belong
In a world where the gentle seem wrong
And teeth get knocked out on Sundays
I lay down in the shower
And make it go away
This fading world
My lovely girl
This fading world
My lovely girl
'Cause I know that you're 17
And I'm just an aging dandy
The world is light and dark
And we live in between
